So i just copied what is written in my hand out, so that people could understand what is the criteria and element needed in this project.

I choose the movie Lord Of The Rings and the musical, as my stage set, it is at Rivendell where the council of Elrond decide what to do with the one ring, it is also where Frodo Baggins volunteered to bring the ring to mount doom to be destroyed.
