I've always been told the beatles wrote their best songs in 3 minuets. There is something that really feeds creativity about working fast, that I absoloutly love!
In two short rehearsals - 2 hours and 2 and a half - I've been working with the fantastic performers Hannah and Adam have assembled and we have put it all togeather.
Its such a luxery to get to work with a chorus of 9 actors - on longer projects budgeting just makes it impossible. But its a great number. and makes for great shapes on the stage.
this choral work is a style of performance that I feel is particuarlly theatrical and I find it so exciting. The ensemble movment, choral images and particuarlly the dynamic betwen the protagonist (or in our case protagonists!) and the chorus all facilitate telling the story in a way I find faciniating!
But this is where I also must let go of the project and allow the process in my absence, as Kenny has already done with the scripts. I'm really looking forward to hearing how things went, and what people think.
Good luck to all the groups tomorrow, and if you're watching have a fantastic time!
