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.

Getting used to monkey shapes

Now that I have decided to go with rhesus macaques for my marionette design, I have found many more images of this particular species in various positions: squatting on haunches, on all fours, standing, etc.  My visual research includes some sketches to familiarise myself with the shape of this kind of monkey, as well as surrounding my desk with lots of photos.
