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.

Indian monkey research

The first thing I wanted to find out was which kind of monkey should I use as a visual reference when designing the marionettes?

I discovered that there are eight main species of monkey in India: the langurs and the macaques:

Rhesus Macaque
Bonnet Macaques
Liontailed Macaque
Assamese Macaques
Common Langur
Capped Langurs
Nilgiri Langurs
Golden Langur
