Section A Question 1

My group performed Claire Dowie's 'Adult Child Dead Child'.

The genre was black comedy.

The play was about a person with schizophrenia ho is controlled by her invisible friend, Benji.

Our performance space was our school drama theatre which has end on staging with raked seating. It has a four bar overhead lighting rig with up to 36 lanterns. The entrances are downstage left and downstage right.

We used a rostrum for a compact set. We used overhead lighting which consisted of warm colours.

Our target audience was teenagers and young adults.

I played the person with schizophrenia. She was distressed yet submissive towards her invisible friend.
