Tuesday 27th August
Day 2! On Tuesday we began exploring the ancient costume cupboard and beginning to create some improvised scenes using costume pieces as stimuli.

- Who might have worn this?
-Who were they?
-What is the story behind this?
With the answers to these questions, we then began to improvise our ideas within our group to try and create a story.
During this rehearsal time, individual groups went over to the costume cupboard in order to get more inspiration and have the chance to explore all the hidden stories within the bunker. The costume cupboard is packed full of amazing, unused costumes and we felt it was amazing to get these costumes out and start using them. While at the costume cupboard, each of the groups wrote down 3 words that they felt described the costume cupboard, 3 words to describe how it feels to be in there and 3 things that they had found interesting or liked.
After lunch, all the groups performed there improvised scenes and stories and by the end of the day we had 4 solid ideas that we wanted to build upon ...
