tensions created by use of
Silence - establishing character one by one as the start the first line up.
Contact at between character and actor
Repetition of hand in face blocking the light
Movement getting bigger and bigger
Transformational a thing into the children - physicalisation also a lighting change
Silence -> all talking at once
Synchronised movement of picking up suitcases
Blackout info filing cabinet
All fighting at ones over bed making

Stillness Always contrasted by movement
Tension created - harsh/violent movement and music

Projection of child in the background that fades out - they took my son
STOOOPPP - sound instantly cuts
Projection of 'White' House onto a blanket being held up
Transition light Vs dark - white family vs childlike game - Ruby's back
Singsong clapping things "can you keep a secret
Ruby projects her depression and problems onto the doll in a light hearted 'vanilla nice' way like a child

Dramatic irony - "and go black"
Aggressive and haunting soundscape

Projected onto the walls so powerful
Filing cabinet slam

Projection onto walls of cans
Comparing his life to a can of food
Knocks over the stack of cans to make that loud sound
Stark/ white lighting used to choose Jimmy for the weekend away
Background talking and noises whilst Shirley's on the phone after Lionel
Tension created with rising vocal tone and stark lighting
Jimmy takes the phone away from Shirley
Home of the red sands- red lighting projected onto the walls

Called me sandy anyway
Everyone laughing at a rape storey as clever use of humour
No sing song as Jimmy returns for along time

Use of many Australian children's phrases - poet and I didn't even know it even though he was an adult (sandy)
More jimmy a letters and projection onto the walls
Stark lighting in Jimmy - white influence
"Who do you think you are"
Again use of humour to break up a serious issue - taking the cloth away

"I'm gonna meet my mum"
Too late to undo the damage caused

Use of light from torch projecting shadows
Pushes him and he sways as if suspended by a rope (hung)
