Baba Shakespeare is a new production to be staged by Tower Theatre Company at the Arcola Tent from Tuesday 17th April - Wednesday 2nd May 2012 as part of the RSC Open Stages, which has been described as the UK's biggest amateur theatre project.

The script for Baba Shakespeare has been written by director Emmeline Winterbotham and is derived from the screenplay of the 1965 Merchant Ivory film Shakespeare Wallah, a true story that follows the family of actress Felicity Kendal as they travel around post-colonial India as a troupe of Shakespeare players.

Time to get my hands dirty

I've had enough of photos and videos and sketching.  I want to grab some clay and get a feel for what the carved three dimensional shapes might look like.  It's easier to see how it will all fit together this way.

Of course any joints I make will be all sticky until the clay dries out, so its more useful for visualising the main shapes than the intricacies of the joints.  Having said this, it was useful to try out a possible neck joint in three dimensions.
