Devising notes
Whilst devising what to do in our performance for disability benefit cuts We thought of many ideas but it wasn't forming into a clear path. Ben gave us advice and a starting point "X factor". We then had the idea of calling our scene "Britains got Benefits" as the person who wins the contest from performing earns Benefits. It is supposed ironic as benefits are being cut drastically in britain. During the lesson everyone had to see how each scene was doing. People were shocked to see me acting as if I had cerebral palsy and some were even offended so we decided to change my disability to a person who cannot walk.
Austerity board game

This reflects today's society it is sad that life the rich keep getting richer and poor keep losing money. This board game clearly depicts capitalism. This is a perfect material to work with for for the devising group. We are thinking of ways to make it into a game show.
