Hinge and Bracket - Dynamic of The Partnership

Dynamic of The Partnership

In a 2007 televised interview, George Logan explains how he and Patrick Fyffe collaborated on their own stage material, developing the framework for a new show around a series of ideas, then subsequently refining the gags and the timing in live performance. In Logan's words they needed to "play it like a duet with the audience" in order to perfect a show. He notes that the differences in their personalities worked to the good of the act: Logan himself was apt to work "from the head" as a performer, whereas Fyffe's approach to performing was more instinctive - a "natural comedian given to bouts of insane humour" and never happier than when deviating from the script.

Famous quotes containing the words dynamic of, dynamic and/or partnership:

    Imagination is always the fabric of social life and the dynamic of history. The influence of real needs and compulsions, of real interests and materials, is indirect because the crowd is never conscious of it.
    Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    The nearer a conception comes towards finality, the nearer does the dynamic relation, out of which this concept has arisen, draw to a close. To know is to lose.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children’s best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment.... Such communication, which can only be in a child’s interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and teacher.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
