Bruce Mason Theatre

Lately we went to the Bruce Mason Theatre. When we arrived our common got split into three groups.

First my group when to the stage and we got to preform a play. In the play I performed as a witch there was a group of witch's and I was in that group. One witch in our group got picked to be the head witch. LJ got selected to be the head witch, she had to learn a few lines. LJ got to have a awesome affect on her wand where when she struck her wand at one of the children, the people that lead sound effects created a sound effect that made it sound as if LJ's wand had actually struck the children.

Once we had finished practising one of our classes groups had all ready finished the session so they came to watch our group perform. All the performers ran backstage and we got some props and witch hats, brooms and wands. we had to be super quiet so that the audience couldn't hear us. When we heard our Que we walked out onto the stage and fog started come out of the fog machine. We performed pretty well for only practising twice.

 Then we moved on to the next session. In that session we watched a video about how long the building process is that the workers there have to go through. I didn't expect the process for event's in Auckland stadium and performances to take so long to build and organise.

Then in the next session we looked at how the workers there use sound by doing a performance for us. They used a variety of different sounds to create a story. We also got to put on these head peaces that played a track to us and they watched us reacted to it.

 After This we had a break for lunch, I was very tired so I was happy to have this break.

 After this we walked upstairs to watch a dance that these girl's did for us.In the dance the girls mainly used there arms and hands but they did also use the rest of there body. I really loved this dance because it was different but in a good way. The different objects that they used in there dance where all very intriguing in different ways. Some of the objects that they use in the dance moved. One of the objects they used was called the M-Bot, the M-Bot is similar to a segway but it's only difference is that it can be controlled with the app for M-Bot. After the dance we did some rotations using dancing and guiding the hole group with different movements in different directions. Then they played some music and we had to go over the same type of obstacles that they used in there dance to the music.

I learnt a hole lot of new important things at the Bruce mason Theatre that will be very important in the future. Overall I enjoyed being at the Bruce Mason theatre.
