This combination of drama exercises from drama Menu was a very effective one to encourage awareness of other performers and to think about the energy and shape of a piece when in performance, I wanted to encourage my students to open their senses and feel their way through the performance piece; these exercises proved to be an extremely effective combination to achieve that aim and the work produced showed very good awareness of the energy required to drive a piece of theatre. I was particularly pleased with the way the spotlights exercise prepared the group for the performance piece to come; it was so very effective, making all players on stage deeply aware of the energy of the piece and encouraging them to feel that energy and interject before it was lost.
