"Nightmare" Verbatim Theatre

In our piece's scene "Nightmare", we use Verbatim Theatre to portray people's dreams to the audience.  There are three different nightmares included in the scene but we have made the scene appear conversational, as we believe it adds more to the strangeness of the dreams.  The dreams we used in our piece came from a classmate, my mother and my little sister, and the fact that the dreams are real really adds something to our performance of them.  Verbatim theatre means that you aren't just acting as somebody, you are becoming them, which is a freeing experience.
