Reflection on assessment

For our drama assessment we had to do a reenactment of the Titanic. For our characters we chose the villain as me, the henchman as Rana, the damsel as Yasmeen, the Hero as William and the captain of the ship as Daniyal. I took over the ship and made William come to the captains room so that I could beat him up. He came and I beat him up. Yasmeen pushed me off him and they saved the day together. I showed my character by beating up William and doing a Mr. Burns on it. Also I was despicable towards Yasmeen. My performance was successful but I could have put on a more melodramatic performance and I could have beat up William more. In the play I was the character of a stuck up rich man. At lots of points I would stand over people and act like I was superior to them. This was to show that I was menacing and evil.

PROPS

In my play I was the rich villain. I had a cane  in the play to support my character by using this cane in fight scenes or in other parts of the play. I use a cane to show that I am an old character and that I also like to show my wealth and authority through holding the cane and waving it around in peoples faces. This cane is used as hidden things in the play as well. Such as when I hijacked the boat I used the cane as the lever to increase the boats speed. This is why I used the cane.
