Now this was quite a fun activity. Not being an actor, when we got into it and actually found out what it was I began to get a bit nervous, but after I let that go, and rememberd that no one cared I had alot of fun. We floated around in the pool for a while before beginning. We had lamenated scripts, the first fight in Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew. We were doing stage combat!

Now i don’t have any pictures from this activity because of the water (water+ digi camera = bad) but it was fun all the same. We each had a partner, and with them we learned how to fall into the pool, slap, pull hair, swing and dodge, and basically act out that scene. I can definatley say acting is not my strong point but I’m glad I did this. I even got to throw my partner over my head!
