Our group manifestos
Engaging with the schemes to enhance an immersive experience with the engagement and situational aspect of sexual harassment, the challenge out audience to choose there own out come with the questions they receive on the Nameless productions Instagram polls. During a sigh specific element at Club Chemistry.
Promiscuity
characterised by or involving indiscriminate mingling or association, especially having sexual relations with a few partners on a casual basis.
Alice Brich’s text highlighted the male role to want to be frisky and more promiscuous by making advanced and sexual re-marks to try and get the women to be submissive to his words as he is seen to be the big dominate man in the relationship. It is kind of fitting in with the concept that we are trying to add into our performance, is this sexual harassment I cannot quite make that judgement yet. This is because it seems as though the women is not that bothered by how she is talking back to him; but I can make a judgement that she is just not into the mood that the male character is trying to set in this first scene as she goes on a tangent about cheese in the text.
Language
One of the arresting things about Revolt was that it was a play, above all, about language: how the words men and women use with each other shape their relationships and society at large. For all its satirical punch, it was a kind of manifesto for how we might treat one another more kindly and equally. She looks thoughtful. “For me it is the whole job, language – those are the tools. It is quite old-fashioned. I take it really seriously.”-(The Guardian, 2015)
Relationships
A lot of relationships are based on communication, in some cases it makes or breaks a relationship, within the text written from Alice Brich she takes the female role as a strong feminist women but struggles with communication with in relationships and not forgetting that there are two people that makes a relationship. Not everything can be independence, you must share part of your thoughts, feelings and everyday you day to day routine that includes both needs in the equation.
Looking into the text a lot of their little tiffs are based around them not being on the same page, the male character I have identified wants some alone, intimate time with the female character. Which ideally, she just wants to hang out and have fun, she very innocently talking about cheese. When the male character I’m assuming is sleazier with his language with her she responds with the same actions to get him to realise she doesn’t really want this she just making him feel how she is feeling. In elements here though it seems his enjoying this in the beginning until women: “And where? “, Male: “Where are your fingers?”, women: “Up inside your mouth, your arse, your”, Male: “Don't say arse” the male character doesn’t like this statement and shuts it down by being passive aggressive with his delivery.- (Phillips, 2016)
