SIG.

Missed the link on the previous blog!

Very special interest group.

I was browsing through the blogs with the aim of finding a sig group to join and give some input to. I saw Hannah had created a group, and that the topic/question she is most interested in is very similar to the question I want to peruse. I joined up to linked in and attempted to comment on her thread. I found that I didn't really like the user interface for the website, and I am not entirely sure of how to use it, but with proactive, I'm sure it will be a useful source of information and a good place for our online community.

Oh, and award title?

This is a simple one.  I am trained in 3 major disciplines, Dancing, Singing and Acting.  Whatever the nature of the jobs get in the future, i will always be proud of my training and willing to work and share my skills and experiences in all 3 disciplines.  Therefore i would like my award title to be :

BA (Hons) Professional Practice in Musical Theatre 

A proud title. 

Reader 4

So after a long break and pages of notes breaking down reader 4 i have some questions that i would like to further develop and explore.  Some of the questions seem great on the surface, but when thought about deeper i would realise that the answer would week obvious and wouldn't need researching.  some of the questions are pseudo questions and need developing and others, when thought about, would have no real outcome of much solid benefit.

So far these are my ideas for questions to research.

How is dancing viewed to other professions?
Is there an optimum formula for division of time to success in performing?
How safe is a theatre or performing environment.
What is the direction of theatre and performance in modern day society?

I will brainstorm these questions further, refine them and discuss with peers.  Currently, i would really like my line of enquiry to help and benefit  professionals in the future.
