I.P.P.: Topic and Ideas


This is the play thing, right? Where I would be devising and writing my own play to be performed? If this is correct, than I have already started and have some stimulus. For starters, this picture:

STAR WARS!!! Hahahahahah. Alright, now before we have the plagarism discussion, I can assure you I'm not going to write a play about Star Wars. What my real stimulus is that stick in the middle of the picture. Yeah, you know the light saver? Use the Force Luke? Yeah, that kind of thing. I want to be focusing on that as a weapon in the story. Besides Luke as a stimulus, I have a few other things. I would blame the empty chairs in the classroom as stimulus, because it gave me the theme of my play: the failing education system. I would also offer some credit and count Erin Banks as a stimulus, because I was looking through her I.P.P. binder when the idea for my play hit me like a ton of bricks. Finally, I would probably count a leaf as a stimulus, because for some reason I just get the feeling that one of these days, at lunch, I need to go for a walk to think about my I.P.P. and return to school with a leaf. Perhaps thats when my inspiration will hit me, again, and harder. We shall see.
