We were able to come up with an idea pretty straight away! Milly had the initial idea of an alternate universe where people only speak the truth, and have been doing so since the beginning of time. We all thought this was a really good idea, and are starting to think about how we want to format it. As of now, we are thinking of using the branching idea for the flow of the story, similar to that of the comic project we did earlier this semester. We also decided that the audience will be able to choose to see the truth, or what the actor is actually thinking.
In terms of actors and scenarios, we decided that it will be the three of us acting out these scenarios. We will have one centered around each of us, and different setting/ narration will occur in each of our scenes.
I’m looking forward to seeing how this will go, because it seems like this project will be able to evoke many emotions (annoyance, awkwardness, funniness, etc.), so we can play around and see what we can do to get a good reaction from the audience!
Other details are still in the works, and this plan may change, but for now this is what we have developed 😀
