I am researching the suffrage movement and some prominent individuals in the suffragette group
e.g. Emeline Pankhurst. I have focused some attention on the famous Hyde Park rally of 1908. I am
going to research the way suffragette women were treated in prison as this will help me develop my
character of Potter, a disenchanted prison guard. Potter is a character in Her Naked Skin by Rebecca
Lenkiewicz. This text is a key resource for our FMP along with Oxygen by the Dreadnought South
West Association which we are using for our ensemble acting piece.
We are also singing The Pankhurst Anthem as an ensemble piece for our FMP. My research for this
has included looking at the composer and how other people have interpreted the anthem. It’s
important the FMP includes both ensemble and individual performances. My role as a tenor in the
anthem will be important for the success of the final performance as I have a strong powerful voice.
This first phase of the project explores the theme of the Women’s Suffrage Movement, through a
series of practical workshops, group discussions and personal research into the topic. I will reflect
on my explorations in class and set targets for development. I will reflect on:
Weeks 4 - 10
• I will begin work in my pathway group to create performance work for the showcase.
• I will work with my lecturers to explore, select, rehearse and refine the work.
• I will take regular footage of my rehearsal process in order to show the development and
refinement of my piece
• I will set myself weekly targets and reflect honestly on my progress against these.
• I will show how research has been used to develop and influence my ideas
Weeks 11 – 12
I will take part in technical and dress rehearsals for the FMP Showcase.
I will work professionally and be punctual, prepared and attentive in all tech rehearsals.
Performance
I will perform in 2 performances of the final showcase, a matinee and evening performance, on June
7th 2018.
I will demonstrate how I’ve developed my performance skills across the year and how I can
communicate to an audience and work as part of an ensemble.
Evaluation
I will evaluate the FMP project, my process and final performance and include this evaluation on my
website. I will use question prompts to support me to complete this final part of the unit.
