AND HERE WE ARE! Very early one morning the other week the cast and crew of Goblin Market set out to Childwall Woods with Andrew Abrahamson to shoot our long awaited photo shoot at dawn. While you’ll have to wait a little longer for AB’s fantastic photos, here are some behind the scenes snaps to keep you going.
Week 2 of rehearsals has seen a lot of exciting developments in costume department. Firstly with a trip to LIPA on Wednesday, to see how our Goblin costumes were progressing.
We also had a fitting for the Laura, Lizzie and Jeanie’s costumes.
First week of rehearsals over and it has been such an exciting week. It was lovely having everyone together (almost) for the first time and seeing the play come to life. We did a lot of character exercises, exploring individuals’ roles in the play and looking into Jeanie’s backstory.
We also discussed what each of the actors thought about the play’s main ideas at this point in the rehearsal process, and portrayed them as tableaux:
We were also very lucky to have a costume fitting for our Goblins with the wonderful Mr Wolf Collective on friday (photos to follow). Looking forward to Week 2!
A couple of weeks ago we were lucky enough to access the University of Liverpool Music Department’s recording studio and record some of our original play score, with Dr Sarah Peverley on the Harp. With our composer Alex Cottrell at the helm, a few members of the cast and crew spent a lovely afternoon in the studio, thank you very much Sarah for your beautiful playing and also thanks to the Music Department. Looking forward to more sessions with Alex playing the Balalaika.
