Missing Since Monday
10/June/2009 09:07 Filed in: Theatre Production Photography
These are some of the rehearsal photographs that were taken of 'Missing Since Monday' a new chamber musical by Harriet Oughton with Fran Morley and the Nuffield Youth Theatre. The photos were taken before the dress rehearsal whilst the cast and director were working on key scenes from the musical.
The production is about Laura Barton, aged just 15, who has gone missing after an argument at a party.
Rumours are flying around about what has happened to her. Nobody knows, but there is no shortage of theories.
Nuffield Youth Theatre spent a term researching real stories of missing teenagers, including Dan Nolan, improvising and devising scenes of their own and developing their singing skills. Another term of work on the completed script and score have stretched those skills further.
