What is missing?

Characters

What characters are we and when? Do we want the piece to be based around 'The Man' or to be random scenes based on exploring the idea of space? or possibly both as it is now?

The Arch

Are we sticking with the idea of the arch? if so what is the high point in the middle? an intense scene such as the chair swivel/interogation scene? or the humorous cabaret?
(I mention these as they seem to be scenes which contain high energy at the moment)

Humour

Before this mornings class I was concerned that the piece may be too flat/serious and needed moments of humour which the cabaret scene provides but do we need anymore humourous scenes?

The tv's

If we have screens we need to think about what is being shown on them during each scene and how this may affect the feel of the piece

Audience

We have lost track of what we are wanting to convey to the audience? What type of peformance are they witnessing? What parts of the piece should make them think? what parts should be obvious?

Transitions

Not a big worry yet, can be left until the last minute but are worth thinking about as they can be useful in determining order of scenes e.g. who has white suits and when? when do we get hats and canes? e.t.c

Staging

What do we want on stage? where will it be when it is off stage?
