Shakepeare project part 4

Been almost 2 weeks back at college, first week back there was much due to our  day of on Tuesday and a strike on Wednesday. The day we started the 22 ND of February , we just went over our Shakespeare   pieces for our performances coming up at peoples houses in the next few weeks. I performed to Rob my piece with my partner Stephan it didn't go to well my biggest challenge is doing Shakespeare because I have never properly done a Shakespeare  play. I find it very hard to speak the Shakespearian English , after this I hope to overcome that challenge and perform the piece on a high note. On the Thursday we came back from the two days off we did a lot of voice work such as working on projection , tongue twisters , physical exercises to really nail our roles in our Shakespeare pieces this was very helpful for me to feel my role more then ever. On Friday we had a workshop a production company by the name of the Broken hearted theatre , who came in and occupied us with a load of physical games for 4 hours. This was really fun this reminded me of how much you must concentrate in these physical games to stay on top. We played a lot of games were you must use eye contact to get someone's attention. The whole workshop was based on using your physical skills and movements to tell a story to the audience.  For example one of the games was in a circle were if you wanted to swap places with someone you would have to show direct eye contact to them to move to there places. The Workshop helped me develop my physical skills to the maximum level they could be.
