We had a great day at Joe Foss. The writing topic today was "Happily Ever After." The students wrote a best case ending for a contemporary dramatic scenario that they also created. I was so impressed. Some of the students who tend to be more social in previous sessions really produced this morning. Also, there were about 5 new students who joined Millzworkz Theatre for their first time...the more the merrier!
My goal is to structure scenes to be read in class in two weeks. These scenes will be commulations of today's work. I also continue to retool the monologues that came in two weeks ago. This will become a choral work of individual stories and voices that will serve as dramatic transitions.
After class, Jess interview Amanda Simon, Ashley Schwab and me. She is working on an article for the school paper. This is an impressive young woman with a talent for writing and leadership. All of these students have so much to offer; their work is raw and real.
