Our conclusion was that the hubba bubba both stretched longer and blew larger bubbles before popping. this is likely due to it being more compact than the big league chew, meaning it could stretch out more. It was far more rigid and difficult to chew, and this was perhaps a factor in why we were able to draw it out longer, the reason for it’s density and hardness was likely a result of it being designed to withstand more pressure and therefore, blow larger bubbles. As blowing bubbles requires tensile strength, this also correlates to how much it can stretch before snapping. And the results correlate to this as well

size of bubbles:          attempt 1/2/3/avg

brand A (hubba bubba): 10 cm/7 cm/5cm/7.3 cm

brand B(BLC)                    6cm/3cm/4cm/4.3 cm

 

length measured before snapping

length:

A: 280 cm

B: 60 cm

I really have mixed ideas about the whole workshop. I think the team building exercises were never really applied, therefore I don’t think they were very necessary, but rather, just extremely tiring albeit, pretty entertaining. At least if would have been had I not been sick for the duration of the workshop. That could have been the reason why I disliked most of the workshop, I found it really physically and mentally tiring. I also didn’t think that we  learned that much about the play and I would think that around half of it was unrelated to the play. but for positives, it was definitely entertaining and we have been told a rough edition of the story. In conclusion, I think this is a pretty good workshop and a pretty good experience If you don’t have a sore throat at least.
