Space, skulls and swans
Tuesday, June 8, 2010 at 10:47AM Hive 9 has officially landed in the charming city of Worcester. So far we’ve glimpsed the cathedral, seen a LOT of swans and, most importantly, found our way to the University. We had a lovely welcome from Professor John Newbury and Lorraine Weaver, who showed us round the campus and explained a bit more about the week ahead.

The lab that we’re performing in all week is in the Charles Darwin building - it’s white, pristine and only a year old. Today we found out that the ‘pollen count’ that you see on the weather is actually recorded on the roof here! We also enjoyed getting to know the other visitors to the lab – the array of skulls around the room. There’s a crocodile, a tiger and even a gorilla! We think they definitely add something to the play.
We spent the day rehearsing and settling Hive 9 into its new home - this lab is quite a lot bigger than the others it’s been performed in before so one of our challenges was to work out how to make the play sit in the space. After a few experiments with various rope/table/trolley combinations we got there.
Tomorrow morning the performances begin – we’re excited to get going and give Hive 9 its first outing outside of London.
