Tales from the Thames - into the tunnels

Despite the hot weather in London, we are now working inside the railway tunnels for our project which stay at a cool 12 degrees all year round. We have started playing with the stories in the space, and begun some set design work to transform the building with the help of HSBC volunteers.

Tales from the Thames - First week of rehearsals

Day three of rehearsals at The Unicorn Theatre and started with sea shanties in the morning

followed by some games of 'Grandmother's footsteps' in the afternoon and working with some of the stories in smaller groups.

We have also put up on the walls all of the monsters that were drawn in our workshops with Primary Schools as inspiration!

All we need is a long vehicle!

This is the week of long vehicles, long days and many events.
