Got so excited about writing about the experience that we forgot to tell you a bit about the piece that we are working on!
"All Over the Place" is a piece that explores three diverse real life stories that, in one's opinion, acknowledges the lack of communication and equality in our world. With these stories, today's sessions were focused on an improvisational devising process which allowed us to create a structure for various scenes.
Music is a core element in the work at Orpheus, whereby every song produced and sung is done by the students at the centre, therefore they are consistently at the heart of their projects.
As enablers, we have found these experience liberating as no structure is ever produced before hand and then imposed upon the students. The art work is solely created by them and we are the support mechanism that can ensure guidance and encouragement.
On a personal level, we have noticed how the students' confidence has risen dramatically in the two days' rehearsals he have had. We are looking forward to witnessing their achievements when preparing themselves to perform at such a venue as the Royal Opera House!
We shall keep you updated!
Salwa and Juancho ;-)
