WEEK ONE: DIRECTOR'S COMMENTARY

When confronted with so many expectant faces, lesser mortals would have resulted to relying on time-honoured, tried and tested warm-up games and exercises. However, armed with a new arsenal of exploratory techniques, and refreshed from recent ‘professional updating’ with the RSC, I chose to begin our work on the ‘Yer Bard!’ project with a range of time-honoured, tried and tested warm-up games and exercises.

‘You can’t do many things son…so stick with what you know!’ - as my old mother used to say.


In a sense that’s why we are all here, suffering the ignominies we so often inflict upon our students in order to; perhaps, refresh those parts the Bard has yet to reach? What will the coming weeks bring? Stay tuned to find out!
