Notes from the Lesson on What to Perform:


Location: Cafe in the new theatre building - chairs and tables/you could put a bed in the centre/perfect first date spot.

Courtships: Old fashioned/modern/animals.

Irish Travellers: Dress provocatively and the men grab them.
Austria: The men have to ask the women to Waltz. They all have Waltzing lessons at school. The woman holds apple slices under her armpit when she is dancing. If she dances with a man she likes, he takes it and eats it.
Hippo: Has a poo and then swings it's tail around to spray it's scent to the female.
Peacock: Shows off it's coloured tail to the female.

We could do something to do with scent or some kind of speed dating idea - make the audience sit down/try to seduce the audience.
Courtship rituals and going deeper into the core of men and woman - include the kissing bit with Jack and Laura - relationships/being someone you're not.
The box office could be a bar - for dating.
Everyone could write their own dating profile and we could have menu's with us in them - the audience are able to buy you.
Memory - think of love stories.
Random profile selection.
Film response on the wall on a projector - have truth playing - he contradicts himself - the truth says what is really going on in his head.
1/2 show- human interaction - 1/2 show - animal interaction.
"Take Me Out" - cannot be cheesy/fake.
Subtle message of women rejecting men.
Animal Speed dating.
