Rehearsals in Residence in local schools form a very important part of our commitment to the students of Lincolnshire. This time it was the turn of The Priory Witham Academy in Lincoln to host the creative team rehearsing our emotive and powerful exploration of bullying, Mark and the Marked, and thus providing a wonderful opportunity for pupils in Years 6 and 10 to observe and engage with the process at close quarters. Actors Joel Nash, Premi Tamang and Zaki Ali, director and choreographer Kitty Winter and composer and musician Jack Blakey were brilliant at showcasing the skills require both to rehearse and perform and engage fully with the fascinated members of their student audiences.
“I really enjoyed how inclusive it was. Everyone in the room was treated as equals. Everyone was absolutely lovely. I think everything was perfect and I loved it so much. Thank you for doing this, it was funny and amazing.”
