There's a Gorilla in the Building?

Jake Good came to talk to us, we were introduced to him first as a gorilla in The Street then as a walking suitcase and then as one of his characters Mustafa. I found his talk enjoyable and gave us an insight into his character development process. It made me see how detailed the research and experimentation is and was very informative. We had the chance to ask whatever questions we wanted and therefore got some great insight. Although street performance is not necessarily the direction I want to take my work in, it gave me a greater appreciation for this art form.
