Assignment/Activity TitleDada Play Year9th SkillCreative, Writing, PerformancePortfolio CategoryMedia and Communication

Dada was an artistic and literary movement that arose in reaction to WW2, when my drama teacher first told us about dada and showed some examples of dada sculpture I was amazed at how it was considered art. For example there was a urinal, which was all. Among these interesting works there were interesting people who took part in it, such as a so-called president of the universe. Although I still do not quite understand the full idea of dada-ism I did appreciate the change that this assignment made on me.

For our assignment we were told to make a dada play, at first me and my group were hesitant on ideas, however after some research we found that a common problem was media trying to show the ideal person and set unrealistic goals for people.

This issue is very common in modern society and this project specifically helped me realize the impact of media on peoples goals. This play made me more aware to these issues in society, so through this play I believe that others who also are not realizing this common occurrence will realize what is happening.

If I would redo this assignment I would have made the message clearer, in our revised attempt at the play our group got a better score due to the fact that we made the message clearer, if we were to do it again the audience might better understand the issue we were addressing
