Preparation for this introductory show was minimal. The group teacher, Geoff, gave each student a copy of a list of personal topics. The students took turns interviewing each other, responding without a script - spontaneously. The show was recorded in class, on group teacher, Geoff's, Apple MacBook Pro computer with the program Garageband, and a Garageband musical jingle added (the class chose the jingle "Stepping Out Short"). After editing in Garageband, the audio volume was leveled using the program Levelator (www.gigavox.com/levelator), and converted to MP3 using LameBrain (check at www.macupdate.com). The photo was edited in Adobe Fireworks.

This show was produced at the Bardwell Road Adult Centre, St Clare's, Oxford, UK
