Today we worked on our forced marriage scene. We decided to make it about forced marriages rather than arranged marriage as it's more of the parents not letting them marry who they want rather than a back-up plan. We thought of starting with the two fathers (showing male dominance) on the phone setting up a marriage for a son and daughter. We then faced the problem of only having two females when the piece we had needed three. We then decided that the daughter's mother would be dead and that the dad could use this against the daughter of and when she decides to rebel. We decided that the daughter's father could tell the daughter that they are going on holiday but then mentally abuses her to marry the son of the other man.
I like the idea because it's a way to get around the problem that we have with only having limited girls and the fact that we can use this against the daughter in the marriage making it more brutal and manipulative towards her. I think to improve, our group needs to be more forward thinking and get more ideas out when we are together as we only have three lessons a week and limited time till the performance.
