Project Research | The Everyday Sexism Company Puppetry Project

The Everyday Sexism Company Puppetry Project 


* Combination of puppetry and verbatim theatre
* Fairly small project, just first half of the term

Elements
* A company project, we decided as a group what we need to do and how to go about it
* We decided where the project goes
* Verbatim
* Puppetry
     - As a company we gather material, like Film, voice recording or short hand

We then will have to make a structure out of the themes that become apparent during the research process

* It is about discovery for young people about sexism at Nottingham Trent, through societies, clubs, from friends and possibly staff
* Philosophy, ethnicity and politics

* Puppets to represent the people who've we interviewed 

Look at 
* Laura Bates
* Blind Sumit

Q: Why are we using puppets?
   - Its an object , a blank canvas
   -  We can project ours and others thoughts and stories
   - Project extremes onto a puppet (e.g. satire)
   - We can extend the personality, give the puppet multiple personalities, give it certain qualities
