The play's on its feet!

Welcome to the first Begin/End blog. We'll be keeping you updated with all the latest happenings from the rehearsal room and the development of this brand new play. So subscribe to our blog for this behind-the-scenes peek.

A brand new play for 14+ audiences, Begin/End is an exciting piece of drama offering a snapshot into a moment of the lives of two teenage girls, which will be touring nationally in February and March 2010, starting at Half Moon's East London venue on 3 February.

Being/End was written by David Lane over three years, but even after that the play still continues to get 'rewritten' in the rehearsal room. Lines are cut and rewritten slightly to allow for the flow of the play.

After two days of discussion about the world of the play, exploration of characters, physical exercises (I heard Bewitched's C'est La Vie ringing out of the rehearsal room this morning!) the play is 'up on it's feet', which means that a script in hand read through of the play is being done. Chris, Half Moon's director, has just popped his head around the door and reports that things are looking good. Next update will provide more in depth info about one of the componants of the production.
