our devised scene was about eduaction. we looked at how the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor through the education system. children who go to private schools because they come from wealthy famiys get more attention, more resources and therefore better grades then people who dont have the money to attend private school and go to public schools with less resources and less contact time with teachers. the priavte school children are more likey to get bgetter gbrades and achive more as they will get into better universitys and then better jobs perpetuating the cycle of rich staying rich and poor staying poor and they strong devide created.
our scene looks at both the schools in a very contasting way. the narator sybil looks at the priavte school where there are only two students in a class and a teacher giving us i pads and tutoring us individually. we then transition into a public shcool where there is an overcrowed classroom out of control. there is a nhew book in the class and it the only one the class has. the teacher can no keep control of the class. sybil is commenting on how sad it is and that the audience should send their children to private schools. she then calls us animals at which point we all turn into gorrillas and carry sybil away as this si how the poor are seen form the riches perpective.
The scene shows and exaggerated version of the current system but contines to portray the message to the audience of capitalism and consumerism even within the education system
