Costumes

Today we started to have a talk about what we wanted our show to look like for our audience. We briefly talked about set and then we had a debate on costumes.
Set was simple to sort as we all agree e wanted a table and a couple of chairs but to adjust this set to suit a young offenders institute. So we said we look in covering the corners of the tables in foam and instead of chairs we could get foam cubes to sit on. This set would work for a institute as it helps show the safety in institute which they talk about in the play.
Costumes was harder to set as we all have different ideas for different reasons:

All white:
Shows that there clearly in a institute and that there all inmates (realistic)

All white with 1 iteam of clothing:
This has the same reason as above but the idea of an extra iteam to help show individuality.

IOBE clothing:
We also thought about having them all in costume for "Impotence of being earnest" (IOBE) as they are all doing there dress rehearsal of the show.

Normal clothes:
I suggested normal clothes to try a trick the audience at first into thinking we are normal people so that when they hear clues of the horrible things that we have done it could be more of a shock to the audience.

Grey clothes:
This is similar reasons to wearing white except by wearing Grey it shows less purity with our characters and a more darker tone.

Singular colour:
We each wear a single colour that represents our characters.

Grey and white:
To show realism like some young offenders institutes. Grey bottoms and white tops.
