My VCE Drama Unit 4 Solo Performance for Year 12, Class of 2008 at Scotch College, performed at Hamer Hall in 'Top Acts' as part of the VCE Season of Excellence 2009.
The piece is based on the following stimulus material provided by VCAA:
Character: The Prisoner
Performance focus: Create a solo performance based on the character of the Prisoner. Boasting to his dungeon mate about how his noble background and education have helped him to outmanoeuvre the Committee of Public Safety up to this point, the optimistic Prisoner
• demonstrates an example from history which supports the formula comedy is tragedy plus time
• re-creates events leading up to his incarceration in this dungeon
• creates images which draw on the experiences of his friend the Scarlet Pimpernel in outwitting Citizen Chauvelin after the fall of the Bastille
• creates a vision of how his escapades will provide inspiration for future superheroes.
Performance style: Non-naturalistic with aspects of Pythonesque comedy
Theatrical conventions: Exaggerated movement, freeze frame
Dramatic elements: Conflict, language
Amazing!
