Project Title Final Major Project: Glasstown

Section 1: Review

Throughout my second year, I have developed so much as a performer and person. We started the year
with Shakespeare, which I thoroughly enjoyed, it gave me a deeper love for historical writings and
taught me to appreciate the difference in expression and emotion Shakespearean writing offers. I was
supported by my course leaders when I began my application process for university, something that
gave me a lot of anxiety. I was directed towards monologues that would suit me and given honest
feedback about my monologues. I know now how to hold and present myself during auditions, and the
preparations that we made, made me a lot less anxious about the process. We also did an audio project
which introduced me to a new genre of acting, I developed a skill that I wouldn’t have otherwise. When
going into FMP I wanted to push myself to present myself in a way that would show my abilities, I also
wanted to collaborate with my peers more. Long term, I aspire to go into directing and explore other
roles in the industry, I enjoy acting but I aspire to be a part of the creation.

Section 2: Project Concept

This project was a huge collaboration, we created a play from scratch, and so, the process relied upon
our creativity. Our aim was to create a show that we would perform 6 times. It was themed around the
life of the Bronte siblings and the worlds they created as children. This required a lot of research into the
Bronte’s lives and their writings. I read poems and watched documentaries on their lives and creations. I
expect that our show will be a colourful celebration of our work, and correctly portray the Brontes and
their world. We will use performance spaces to bring the ideas to life, they will allow us to envision our
stage until it is free to use. Working with industry professionals will allow us to get a feel of the real
environment within the industry and allow us to remain at a professional work ethic. Feedback from our
director will aid us in outlining our strengths and weaknesses, allowing our performance to be
enhanced. Learning our scripts and characters’ motives will be included in individual studies.

Section 3: Evaluation
To Reflect on my work, I will self-evaluate the work I did in and out of the rehearsal room, and what I
could have done better. The weekly reflection videos will be a good way to document my actions, and
how effective they’ve been throughout the project, whilst also tracking any challenges I face. I will also
be annotating my script with any thoughts or changes that are made. Notes from the creative team are a
good way to check in on how I’m doing and a way to conversate about how I’m doing and what could be
better. Having good communication between myself and the director is vital, ensuring everyone involved
is on the same wavelength. Having my notebook in rehearsals is also a good way to track how I’m
feeling and what I’m doing throughout the day. To create a healthy working environment between me
and the cast, I intend to keep a sense of focus whilst also making the room feel relaxed, especially
during the performance week. I often find that when we all come together and sing, or dance, we create
an energy that allows the day to go a lot more smoothly. I will also be ensuring that I don’t give any peer
feedback to anyone, I need to focus on myself, and I understand the repercussions my giving notes to
someone else can have, we don’t need any stress added on anyone. In doing so I hope the same
happens to me, I want to receive notes from the creative team when necessary and not from my peers,
in fear of changing something and the director being unhappy and making the process longer than it
needs to.
