Sounds of bubbles and movement like water- children moving around together…
Blub, blub, blub…
Two children, one boy and one girl step out of the bubbles that are flowing around
Sudden military like chant.
Children fall into a classroom like pattern
She pauses, and with a lot of drama says
A sudden clang or a bang is heard. Can be created using a musical instrument, or clang plates etc
The children from the classroom “explode” and fall apart. They then move into a round, earth like formation. Blue light or blue cloth signifying the earth maybe used…something that’s bobbing and moving around and is looking like it is teeming with life.
A group sings
Shift to classroom formation again:
A different teacher recites
Suddenly, a bunch of clouds appear. They can use prop cut-outs of shapes of clouds, or also perhaps use cotton
Cloud 1, 2 and 3 stand on platforms of different levels and speak together:
Clouds may imitate this action
A teacher appears suddenly. The children are a bit scared! They back off…
She speaks to them in a kind voice...
Two new characters land up on stage and start playing tug-o-war with intense focus
This tussle continues in the back
The above lines can be matched with interesting theatrical pull and push, and a growing energy head with some hold-up masks/head props and how uncontrollable it is…
