t1111I want The start of my show to be colourful and cabaret style as I want the atmosphere of the piece to change as the performance develops. After thinking about the idea that my pancreas is like a door it doesn’t let insulin out to break down glucose, I don’t have the right hormones to enter the ‘locks’.

This may confuse the audience though as it would be quite ambiguous. I would only enter through it at the beginning dramatically and then not enter or leave through it again.

I am going to be using lights t11111anyway as a major part of my piece and I want projections. However, because I want to set up objects in the space if I have TV’s in the space I feel this would look odd. So I am going to use the giant projection screen at the back and reveal it from behind the curtains. It will then act as almost a back drop. I can also shine the lights onto the black curtain to create the cabaret style effect.
