‘I can take any empty space and call it a bare stage. A man walks across the empty space whilst someone else is watching him, and this is all that is needed for an act of theatre to be engaged’ – Peter Brook

My Performance Space.

 

After exploring bridges in Lincoln City centre, I am 100% set on using the University campus bridge as my location of performance. Here are some pictures I have taken of my performance space to initially show proximity. All sides are documented. (facing LPAC, water, cathedral, Business & Law building, etc).

 

Taken with back to LPAC. The performance space is exceptionally wide which will help include audience members and allow me to freely move.

This is where I will be when I shout at the LPAC and start my performance. It shows how long the bridge is and how far away the LPAC is, therefore vocal projection is important.

This image captures one side of the bridge (otherwise known as the positive side) In the distance the cathedral is visible and creates a picturesque backdrop.
