The first draft of the script is now complete so will be working on that in the coming weeks to cut the time down and get it ready to be recorded so it can be played either or speakers or headphones within the installation.
As a process this was pretty tricky, deciding which parts of the script should go and which should stay and also the length of the script was a difficult thing to decide. Currently I'm not sure of the exact length of it but after a few read throughs of it I'll know whether it needs more cuts or is ok as it is. I'm hoping for the latter!
The box is arriving the week commencing 7th March so will be able to crack on with the interior and working on how it looks from then onwards. It's coming together quickly now and just hope I keep track of it and keep the process running smoothly. Fingers crossed.

The Project
I'm currently in my third year studying Drama at the University of Huddersfield. For my final year project I'm creating a theatre installation based on the monologue A Cream Cracker Under The Settee by Alan Bennett.
The installation will feature a room sized wooden box in which the audience enter individually. The audience member will feel like they're stepping into the home of the women whose monologue they are listening to and feel like they are stepping into her world.
This blog is going to follow my progress through the whole process from planning to performance and the ups and downs along the way.
