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.

Blending

Good progress on Monkey Number Two, starting with the legs.  The first step after cutting out the shapes on the bandsaw is to blend the four surfaces into each other, rounding off the hard edges.  This is a nice job that doesn't require too much thought.  It is also a bonus to have the first monkey to refer to, since the second one is a slightly scaled up version but the same design.

Here you can see the progression from left to right of the thigh through the blending process.
