further development of ideas

From last rehearsal my company developed our original ideas. We wanted to develop the idea of a narnia type world but relate it deeper into our site. We have decided we will have three dancer characters who are from the land and 2 theatre students characters. This shows how the building of our site is the dancers building and being in theatre we are foreign to this area. However we thought it was important to make these characters not so obviously defined by strand. As we all like the idea of a mystical land we are turning the dancers characters into mystical creatures with dance like physicality. We are still working on our story line and experimenting on how we can use the architectural features to help narrate our story. We are particularly interested in using the metal circles in the balcony to influence are story and movement. Also the lockers create really interesting spacing that it would be interesting to explore further.
