Day 9
Disney To The Rescue, Again!
For the final singing scene, we were looking at songs from the famous Disney movie High School Musical. Eventually we decided on the song Stick to the Status Quo. This song was very suitable for our scene because the song consists of four solos, which was perfect because we had four passengers on the train. The solos were in the same order as the contemplation scenes were: beginning with Olivia, then Luke, then Kim, and lastly me. We immediately started changing the lyrics to match our particular topics. Each passenger partook in an individual solo that pertained to his or her water issue topic. Furthermore, we also started think of our ending scene, which would show the decisions that each passenger takes. Since part of our message of our performance deals with the issue the United States, we decided to also show the ignorance of the American population through ending scene because not everyone chooses to do the right eco-friendly thing. With this in mind, we decided that two of the passengers would pick the wrong decision, which highlights the ignorance of the public in the United States. Olivia and Kim will be choosing the right decision, where as Luke and I will be choosing the wrong decision. Olivia will decide to read into the book and try to get people to come together to help the water issues. Kim will choose to turn of the faucet when not needed in order to conserve water. On the other hand, Luke will choose to go with bottles water, instead of tap and I will choose to ignore and disregard the water pollution because I’m too busy with my own personal problems. This shows that now every one in the United States population does the right thing despite the fact of knowing the consequences bring out their ignorance to water issues in America.
