Look Out! He is the Spiderman!

Today we all had the chance to learn about Commedia dell’arte with Sam!  All of the kids learned about each of the principal Commedia characters, and had the chance to play some games where they could play with the physicality of each of the characters.  Maybe we’ll see some of them in our shows!  In music, Sam’s group began to learn the theme from the Spiderman Cartoon.  Jane’s group began to learn Be The Hero from Big Fish.  The Kids began to learn the Bonnie Tyler classic, Holding Out For A Hero as well as What Is This Feeling from Wicked.  In Dance, each group learned a small combination to Holding Out For A Hero.  In the afternoon, each group worked on devising.  The Kids worked on creating scenes from tableaus featuring some heroes and villains.  Jane’s group created scenes based on the theatre game Machine, where they created some Superhero Machines.  Sam’s group brainstormed some heroes, villains, and places then created tableaus from the brainstorm.  After which, they added lines and turned them into scenes.  Tomorrow is Superhero Day!  We can’t wait to see what everyone brings to the table with their Super Personas!
