| Description |
Adapted from stories (particularly Rumpelstiltskin) by the Brothers Grimm, which …provide a wonderful basis for using the non-linguistic resources of theatre - visual patterns of costume, set, gesture, dance, movement of all kinds and changes of colour, light and shade, and auditory patterns sometimes created by those movements (the tap of feet on the floor, the squeaking, in this case of an enormous wheel that only partly represents a spinning wheel, the sound of feet and hands striking other hands, bodies, wood or concrete, voices in speech or in other modes such as shouting, crying, laughing, weeping or grunting) or from sources outside the action, especially in the form of a wondrous variety of music or 'noises off'. |
