The Blue Eyed Soul team headed off to the Music Hall to hold a photoshoot for our publicity material. Here we can see Emma Burns harnessed on ropes, with Rachel Freeman and Rachel Liggitt preparing her.
Authentic Victorian costumes were kindly loaned to us from Blists Hill open air museum in Ironbridge.
Rachel Liggitt our Education and Training
Co-ordinator demonstrates some shapes for Emma - it's not quite so easy in the air though!
Rachel will be directing the community performance piece 'Be-Longing'
Rachel Freeman our Artistic Director instructs on holding the tension....
Mervyn Bradley and Ian Andrews are two regular participants with Blue Eyed Soul.
They took part in 'Trace' a project with 40 young people from Wolverhampton which was performed in February last year at the Arena Theatre.
They'll be part of the cast for 'Be-Longing', our community performance piece which will be presented in the Walker Theatre of the new Theatre Severn.
Chris Wroe our designer explains the image he's looking for, whilst Chris Nottingham a local photographer from 7studios snaps away.
Chris will be taking images throughout the project as a record of the activity and development. These contemporary images will be presented as part of an exhibition in the Chapel Bar Theatre Severn in June, along with copies of old photos from Shropshire Archives which inspire our work.
We're looking for other venues to tour the exhibition to - let us know if you're interested!
