During WW2 crime rose by a reported 57%. Fraud, gang culture, looting, and robbery impacted on people’s everyday life. Along with poverty, hunger, illness, and exceptional pressure – what was home really like?
This pack will guide you through a six-week devising process exploring how we create stories, characters, develop a structure, and how to use research and artefacts as stimulus to develop your own project in relation to WWII. Each week, we will look at a different part of the devising process and explore, in detail, a year from the war. The packs are accompanied by work on the Bounce Theatre website where you will find radio plays, stories, online interactive installations and much more.
Pack 2 Teacher Aims: To develop your students’ improvisation skills to aid the devising process, and to play games which help develop story ideas.
Pack 2 Student Outputs: By the end of this pack, you will: know the plot type you want to use, have developed main characters, have created scenes with high stakes.
