Robbery Skit · Evolution




Since picking our prompt some of our ideas have gone through a lot of different changes. This is just a brief run down of how we developed our ideas and got to where we are at. 

Location:
  • Alleyway
  • Street
  • Stage with building and Alley props 
Victim: 
  • Victim female
  • Victim becomes the robber and robs the original one (abandoned idea)
  • Mary Poppins like bag, robber keeps pulling more and more ideas out 
  • Banana phone pulled from bag confusing the robber (accompanying chosen) 
  • Trampoline used as another ridiculous object to be pulled out, further confusing the robber 
  • Robber hands balloons to victim which he pulls out her bag and she floats away 
  • Police Badge Pulled out of the bag by the robber, causing the robber to run away (chosen idea)
Robber:  
  • Gets angry and snatches victims bag 
  • Climbs into the bag, disappears and bag gets picked up/taken away 
  • Pulls out police badge, realises victim is a policeman (chosen idea)

In the next set of poses, we have the old lady; sweet and innocent and a little bit quirky. Lastly, we have the mischievous robber, always up to no good. Meg will take these and apply our character designs over the top.  Lifeguard Pose/Skit 1 Swimmer Pose/Skit 1 Old Lady Pose/Skit 2 Robber Pose/Skit 2

The idea began life on a beach, there were three components which contributed to the skit. The first one was the Lifeguard, we went from having him as a hunky Baywatch character, the crazy character of the skit, was scared of water, and/or failed to save the drowning victim in some way, suggests went from being unable to swim, to being scared by a shark fin, to trying to bail out the ocean with a bucket, to taking his time to blow up an inflatable boat.  The problems began to arise when we thought more about the concept of having to create an environment using water. This forced us to consider more options, we had a good formula but it needed tweaking. It was then suggested that the Drowning person become the crazy person; in this scenario, the lifeguard was the serious character. Concepts then went from ideas of
