Learning lines

So last week, Zoe came up to the mountains house to learn lines for three days straight. After waking up a couple of times, both of us dreaming of nothing but milk wood words, she’s pretty much got it down.

Layering children’s voices

Posted: August 29th, 2009 | Author: Vanessa Hughes | Filed under: Vanessa Hughes & Zoe Norton Lodge: Under Milk Wood, archives, audio, gwennie, singing, video, zoe | 4 Comments »

A wonderful day of hardcore audio, Zoe and I channeling the delights of bullying children for Gwennie’s song and arguably the most superior narration in the work. Found old footage of mid-20th century Welsh children playing: girl with girls, boys with boys. Hop, skip and jump, rolling wheels down cobbled streets, manic dancing in circles, swinging off ropes in the town park. Will post audio soon.
