The bank job
Spike theatre
North Kestevn School
Monday 30th of May
- In many ways this play was successful due to good acting skill the company spike theatre obviously thought very deeply about how to show a lot of different characters and props with out having a lot of props or actors.
This was shown very well throughout the play, which helped maintain interest from all members of the audience.
Some of the major acting skills they used where:
- The actors said in character throughout the play even when they had changed to a different character.
- All the actors had good clear voices which they where able to project throughout the whole hall, they kept this up throughout the whole play.
- There where very good use of movement throughout the whole play they managed to use up all of the available space they had to work with (they where very conscious of space.).
- Facial expressions and body language was used to explain a lot of the story throughout the play they where also quite humorous and serious at certain times throughout the play.
- There physical and natural skill where also very good these included there miming and gestures with there mimes it seemed the objects/people where actually there and you started to picture what the object/person would look like from the actors gestures and other expressions.
- The actors had very good vocal skills they managed to create sound effects with there voices and had volume and pace in there lines the pauses also helped us understand the situation the characters where in.
