Happy Birthday Bruno
We decided to conduct a street birthday party
Involved approaching random people in the street and singing happy birthday at themHad props of balloons, a banner and party bags
We did it along Hubert road
We gave them all a gift of chocolate at the end
Reactions Everyone was quite startled
but found it humorous Seemed to spread happiness
to those we sang too First person knew some of
the group so found it amusing and knew it was for this module
Second guy found it very funny and joined in singing at the end, said we made his day
Third guy was more startled and wasn’t sure how to react
Reactions ctd. Fourth was two guys who smiled for
pictures and seemed to be cheered up by what we did
Next was a big group of people who were very happy but confused by us singing at them
We then sang at a girl who said ‘but its not my birthday’ the guy walking behind her found it very funny
The last one was three guys who looked quite surprised and not very impressed but still took a chocolate
How we felt Felt awkward at first After a few people it was just
funny Easier as we weren’t in
minority We were the ones who had
the power, but still knew what we were doing wasn’t normal
We expected more people to keep walking past us and not stop and let us sing at them, we think this may have been due to our friendly approach not just running and yelling at them
