Rehearsal progress 4

In this rehearsal we created Toby's story of anger where he finds out that his wife has left him for another man, we start with Toby receiving a new job and feeling really good about himself. Toby enters the stage and the song "you make my dreams come true" we had choreographed a dance for Toby to do where he interacts with me and Tom then encourages us to dance with him due to his happiness. Eventual the song dies down and Toby is at his house where he reads a letter from his wife saying she has left him. while he is reading the song "new divide" comes on in the background which starts another dance which Toby does to the music until Dom walks in. Toby learns that Dom is the person that stole his wife which cause him to get angry and attack Dom. Dom retaliates so they get into a big fight that ends with Toby repeatedly punching Dom in the face and as he goes up for one last hit the lights go dark and ends the scene.

Our next scene was that Tom, Toby and Dom wake up one by one on a strange island, Toby with his memory back starts shouting at Dom. Tom stops him and tries to calm him down but this causes Toby to become aggressive towards Tom, leading them to have a fight each other. Tom eventually manages to stop him by talking about himself saying that he lost everything just like Toby. Tom now remembering everything about himself the scene then ends and goes to his story of envy.

For Tom's story we decided we wanted a movement piece so we left it for next rehearsal and created Dom's story of Greed. For this story it starts where Dom and Toby meet in the story of angry but for the fight this time was Dom narrating over it until the end where we see Toby hit Dom with the final punch this time instead of going dark. While Dom is narrating Toby runs away and me followed by Tom enter as paramedics to treat Dom. Dom gets up and starts to narrate to the audiences while me and Tom pretend to take care of Dom who is still on the ground in our view. the scene goes dark with Dom's realisation that he is dead.
