The Container Analysis

What better way to go to the theater then to watch a play on the stage, in the flesh of the actual actors. Clare Bayleys’s play “The Container” had a total of 28 seats for the audiance. Performed in a hot, dark, stuffy and smelly 40ft shipping container, as you watch scared annd anxiously awaiting to see if the refusges make it to the UK. Tom Raybould's sound plan makes you feel as if you are stuck in a truck moving, shocking, shivering to an unpropitious stop. The entryways, hammered and catapulted, underline the feeling of shaky detainment. You actually begin to feel as if you are there. Each immagrint having thier own story to tell , some refuges trying to find their way home to there child and wife or simply trying to make a better life for themselves, and others a hope to work as a servent for the queen of England! The container taking place in a shipping container forces the audance to sit in the darkness, while they hear and smell just as the immigrants did. This giving off a
This demand uncovering the lengths they will go keeping in mind the end goal to achieve their objective. You begin to feel the discomfter and the struggle as they begand plead I have already given you everything! As if the setting wasnt upsetting enough the audience is then subjected to a young pregnant Afghan lady getting grabbed and is thrown out, not able to to meet the care of a sudden demand for more cash, her screams then filling the compartment with excruciating insinuations of her destiny. In conclusion the container creates a real life heart wrenching experince filled with sadness and a helpless feeling unable to react. Sitting in the shipping container with the actors is an absoltly perfect way to give the play a real life effect, and deffeintly forces the audience to experience the issues that the immagrents have faced or are facing. I really enjoyed
