Reflection
I think that my group did really well, we enjoyed ourselves and had lots of fun rehearsing, creating the script and especially performing it. Reflecting back to the performance I think that I did good job because I had a loud voice, so my classmates could understand what I was saying. As well I tried to use different tones of voice, so sometimes I went really loud and sometimes I sounded like I was going to cry (example; when Sultan told me that Sailor Jack was dead)etc. Next time I could improve and try to exaggerate my actions more, so when Sailor Jack walked in, I could've maybe stood up or acted like I was going to faint; something like that, just so it was a little bit more interesting. Also, at the end, I was actually supposed to step on Sultan, and smirk at him, but I forgot. So next time I should try and rehearse more, so I won't forget any scenes/ actions that I will have to do. I must admit, that during the planning and rehearsing time, I sometimes get carried away, and start acting a bit silly and crazy, so in the future I will try really hard to focus and not get carried away.
My group was made up of six people: Ahmed, Abdullah, Tereza, Sultan, Rowan and I. Sultan was Sir Jasper (the villain), Ahmed was the father of Rosebud, Abdullah was Sailor Jack (the hero), Tereza was the sidekick or Sir Jasper (also known as the henchman), Rowan was the mother of Rosebud and I was Rosebud (the damsel in distress). Our story was set in a house; the house where Rosebud and her parents lived. So while they were having dinner, Sidekick walks in and introduces Sir Jasper, and as it shows in the video, Sir Jasper and Sidekick capture Rowan (mother) and Ahmed ( father) . Then Sir Jasper threatened to throw Rosebud's parents out into the cold. Unless Rosebud married Sir Jasper, but she denies the proposal and says that she will marry Sailor Jack. Sir Jasper then lies to Rosebud tellinng her that Sailor Jack is dead and gone, but as soon as he says that Sailor Jack (Abdullah) walks in and fights with Sir Jasper; kills him and Rosebud and Sailor Jack lived happily ever after.
I really enjoyed and had a lot of fun, in writing the script as well as performing/ rehearsing it and I can't wait to start the Titanic melodrama play.

This shows a great deal of creativity and a great response to the script. You used the script as a basis for your own adaptation of a melodrama using your knowledge of melodrama stock characters. You have planned well, changed and added dialogue and thought carefully about the plot.
