Thanet-based Collaborations
As part of the creative process LAStheatre worked with over 250 children across Margate at Cliftonville, Drapers Mills, Palm Bay and Northdown Primary. With local illustrator, Maddy Vian, they created an artwork celebrating the biodiversity and Living Things of Thanet. With composer, Tom Adams, they made instruments from objects collected on a beach clean - thank you to Rise Up Clean Up for their support. With these instruments they created a sea-inspired soundscape which plays as audiences arrive for the show. They also joined forces to play the part of the children of Crabbiton - a recording of their voices can be heard in the live production.
