I am going to discuss is Kindertransport and my witness arrange The adoptionDanielle Grennan May2003 Performance paygrade===============================================The work I am going to discuss is Kindertransport and my own authorshipThe adoption. I saw Kindertransport in October 2002 at theRedbridge Drama Centre my own piece was devised and performed in May2003 too at the Redbridge Drama Centre. some(prenominal) pieces have truly comparable depicted objects about mother and daughter relationships and the obstacle ofgiving children away. Although both pieces atomic number 18 set in differentperiods of epoch. The theme of mother and daughter relationship is notvery comprehensible so it is quite hard to act.My contribution to The adoption was the part of the daughter, ClareAndrews, I had to be very aware of what a child of 11 would of feltlike determination out she was adopted and had been lied to by the mainperson in her life. It was quite a difficult part to play and Iin person feel I did not do it justice partly because of the time wehad to prepare the piece and I did not learn the part as much as Iwould of liked to.I looked for articles on the net about mothers who have losttheir daughters as part of my presentation. I also played a clip fromBuffy the vampire slayer showing this issue. I establish many articlesabout this subject and they helped me to understand the emotions andanxieties of mothers who have lost their daughters. I think it didsupport our piece because by giving it more down-to-earth feelings andemotions felt by mothers.Our piece was set in the modern twenty-four hours and Kindertransport was set inthe 1930s and modern day. Both pieces were about having to strive yourdaughters away for various reasons.In Kindertransport, due to the historical background, the mother hadto vow her child away for its own safety because it was the time ofthe Holocaust. In our piece the mother had to give her daughter awaybecause of her age an d her parents. But in both pieces both motherscome back for their daughters and they chose to stay with theiradoptive mothers.The characters in our piece were just general middle class people inmodern times dealing with this hard but common issue. The charactersin Kindertansport were very different, the real mother and daughterare Jewish German citizens trying to escape the Jewish persecutionsand the adoptive mother and the daughters daughter are just modernday middle class people similar to the characters in our piece. Thiswas shown by accents for the different nationalities.
