So - Jean, Wiggy, Penny and Ellie headed off to The National Costume Hire to have a look at armour and I am sure it will compliment Jean's hand-made costumes brilliantly. Back in the rehearsal room we tackled the sea battle - Glyn Williams ably choreographing to the brilliant Hussein Zahawy's music. Then, we had a go at the whipping scene and the scene after The Battle Of Actium when Ant and Cleo see each other again - we also worked on Octavia's return to Rome and her time in Athens with Antony. A full day working on text and quite a few laughs in the process. We welcome the excellent Luke Walsh to the cast - an actor local to the area who will also be starring in The Rabbit King at The Arc! - he will be playing Ceasar. So we are getting back on track - in fact it feels like the dream team. And we are all very excited about bringing Antony & Cleopatra to The Minack (pictured) and The Caterham and Purley Festivals. Best of luck to Elliot Young (Menas/Scarus) who will be performing in STOMP this week.
