In this conversation we talk further about making choices and how learning to understand why we take the choices we do about what we do on stage we develop clarity of expression which is the foundation stone of a good artist.some of the things we talk about:-Why did you do that? I dont know is not a good enough answer.-Concretise your choices and intentions-We are after a statement of value in your answer- How do we refine our artistic sense of judgement?-Developing a common language amongst teacher and student allows us to express ourselves to each othert.-This must also happen in a show/performance situation. We must develop a shared language with our audience without the benefit of a year of relations during study. So can we  take these ideas from the learning and apply them to performance?-tell me / show me that you have made choices and that you have a unity of intention in these choices.-Intention must exist and be visible in the work-Communicate intent-"Make sure everything in the show is important" Tom Greder.if the audience figures that parts of the show isnt important to you then their trust in the show and interest might unravvel.-How to make the act/show express something...Do I like it? ... Do something... ask is this expressing what I want it to... about whatever subject I want to express?be that subject or idea global warming or just "I want a show that makes me money."-Formulating questions gives you a standard upon which you can judge whether something belongs in the show or not.Is it good?
