Curious Incident: Day Six

Today we took a break from all the strenuous lifting and went on to creating another physical piece for when Christopher searches his house. For example, to create bins we had people leaning down with another persons arms over there shoulders to act as the lid. To create his dads van we had people on their knees to create chairs, people using arms as seatbelts, gear sticks. We had people curled up to act as wheels and people embodying doors. In addition, we had people doing sound effects, such as engine noises and doors slamming. To create the house we had two people being lifted to form the roof, with another as a chimney, and again, people acting as doors. Finally, we created the bedroom, with people on knees with hands out to resemble draws, we also had people crouching to act as support for people to lay on. However, my favourite part happens when we create stairs. We have four people crouching to form stairs and the rest as bannisters to help Christopher up them. Our narrator comes on and pretends to shoot our Christopher so he falls back, before we catch him.

We then ran act 1 through completely, implementing the ideas we have thought of over the last week or so.
