Throughout work experience we didn't have to go to Diploma days over the two weeks, which then lead to us being two weeks behind on the Artefact Unit.
On Thursday 11th March most of us (except from Ben and Lewis due to work experience commitments and no Nikki or Nathan for unknown reasons) met at the Ashcroft Arts Centre to see a performance by the Spike Theatre Company, 'On Top of the World'. The show was amazing. It followed the journey of Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay as they attempted to conquer Everest. The show was hilarious and very creative, as it involved the audience throughout the whole of the play. They used a variety of props to create the set, mainly involving ladders, but also using white clothes, elastic, ropes, cotton wool and bags. They used projections, puppetry and recorded voiceovers to make the show even more fun and it gave it an even more creative feel. One scene was especially funny, where two actors mimed the actions whilst the third actor made sound effects into a microphone. Sometimes he would make the sound effects out of time for a comedic effect.
It was really funny and I'd love to see it again.
