ABSTRACT

Much of the work in this book can feed into the creation of large-scale performance projects and devised work: school, college, community, etc. Exercises 11-13 can for example, as we have seen, culminate with the presentation of group-written poems. These could be developed further, with the addition of music, movement, costume, etc. I have seen material from these and other exercises become the basis for some wonderful school assembly presentations, or the basis from which a song-cycle has developed. I recently used some of these exercises with a community group to create the material for a large-scale sung performance piece.
