Both groups were set the task of getting props/costume sorted for their character this week.
This has to be left up to you as you should know your characters inside out by now, and if you don't this is a good way for you to think about them in even greater detail.
Nation - As the play is abstract and takes place in different time-zones and the majority of you change characters, you all need black bases that we can add bits of costume on top of to make it simple. Think about something that would give a clear signal to the audience about the type of person (or animal!) your character is. Remember SEMIOTICS. You may want to include a prop as part of the costume.
Road - The play is naturalistic and the audience will recognise your characters as real people. I have asked you to consider a whole outfit for your character as you do not change characters throughout the play like the Nation group, this will help you and the audience to 'get under the skin' of the character and see them as extensions of real people you might meet on the street.
