Minnenes Museum Day 1

Iva, Guri, Kai Kenneth and Marie in first days of rehearsals.

The lunchroom in Dikemark. The space we are working in is the community center inside the grounds of what was former Norway biggest mental hospital. Nowadays its only the most dangerous patients left, and of course us…..

Elke and Kieran decided to go to get a table tennis table and stopped by in our house. My two kids did not want them to leave. More on table tennis in the next post.

Museum of Memories

While we wait for the welders we decided with Elke and Katja to make a room in cardboard. This is half a day of work showed in 9 minutes. Next week there will be actors as well!

Hansel & Gretel: set design

Alex met with Steffi today (our set designer and one of the performers in Hansel & Gretel performing this Christmas at The Junction) to talk in detail about ideas for the set design. We will transform the theatre into a forest so we are currently talking to local tree surgeons about using bits of cut-off branches in our set. Steffi has also been working on some beautiful puppets which we use in the show:

Here they are in our office at The Junction, Cambridge with a head still to be added to little Hansel!
