Ghost Stories Devising

We wanted to come up with a new story for our showcase so we looked at doing something to do around drug abuse I mentioned that could hit the audience so they don't know what we are talking about and then just one line they realise that the was around that topic I really liked the idea of us being in different places of the room and saying things like what it made us feel, the smell just wants you having more and once you tried it you never stop this get the audience more interested to see what we are talking about. Again we wanted to mix things up and have it so it was not just about drug taking that their was a meaning behind it going back to the haunting of it. We discussed together about celebrities and how they have gotten involved in having drugs and how this could after their career and what the public and news reporters think about them. We then went on the idea of them coming on out rehab I mentioned the paparazzi could be trying to talk to this person who has just come out asking them lots of questions to see what they are like now and how have they changed we all discussed questions we could ask the celebrity as the paparazzi. This would work really well because the drugs could be haunting the celebrity for the rest of their life and all the chat shows, new reports and paparazzi all the questions they were asked could be making them feel haunted the fact that it will never be forgotten. These are the questions we were going to record for the beginning part when the celeb is just coming out of rehab: 

• What will you do now? 
• Is it true your parents won't talk to you?

• How has your use of pills impacted your career?

• How will you recover from this financially?

• How do you feel about the studio cancelling your contract?

• Did you know your girlfriend is seeing someone else?

• Do you regret that Instagram picture?

• When will you return to twitter?

• Why was your rehab extended? 

We are going to be carrying on with this next lesson coming up with different movenments to make this physical theatre piece like the celeb it being stalked with lots of cameras and putting some diagloue in at the end.
