In our act we were acting out what lady’s do at home while the men are at war eg cleaning, washing the plates, looking after the kid also they would send letters to their husbands or boyfriends they would write stuff like I love you, keep being  strong, I’m waiting for you, stuff to make them feel strong and like someone is with them.

In my drama group we did a act of the dad at war and the kids at the house with the mum but the mum is depressed and starts drinking and smoking then one of their child’s slaps the wine out of their mums hand and the other child thrugh the cigarettes in the bin and then the mum bust out in tears.

The act that I chose was one of the Children and I was crying because I saw my mum crying and she was depressed because of her husband and she kept thinking about him diying.
