‘A Beautiful Game’ Workshop with Woodland School
Last Spring we welcomed Woodland school based in Essex into our building. 30 students took part in a pre-show workshop and watched the BA Musical Theatre’s production of a Beautiful Game. The pre-show workshop was facilitated by Joe Gilmour the assistant director of A Beautiful Game. The young people explored themes of belonging, protest and activism in performance, through ensemble and movement work creating their own piece of physical theatre to music used in the musical. We looked at the different stages in designing a show, showcasing the mood boards, model boxes and sketches of the set and costume designers. Students and teachers thoroughly enjoyed their time here, and we look forward to welcoming Woodland School students back.
