BLUE REMEMBERED HILLS.

DESIGN AND SPECIALIST REQUIREMENTS FOR SET.

Dennis Potter set this play during the second world war where everything from food to drink was limited. Therefore I have decided not to include basic this that you may see in the country side such as apple trees and orange tree’s as it wouldn’t relate to the times that the play was set in.

Lights:

Compulsory lights (most of the time) are green, brown and red. A spotlight will be added in the barn scene and 2 spotlights will be added during Willie and Peter's scene and the scene with all characters when they meet up in the forrest. Also custom designed lighting will be needed to create tree leaves.

I have put in a few tree's and leafs on the floor and sticks to make the forrest scene look a little more realistic and add to the atmosphere since most of the play is set in the forrest.

After doing some research I found that fences are used to separate private land and public land so i've added in a few wooden fences to separate the barn and the forrest area.

A ladder will also be in the barn, but not for use.

The space that we have is quite limited so stage blocks will be used for scenes involving height e.g Willie and Peter's opening scene when Peter jumps off the tree and when Angela calls Donald to come up to the barn.

In a barn you always find hay, so there will be a few stacks of hay in the barn set. It will also give the actors that play Angela, Donald and Audrey a chance to work it into their scene.

Stage Blocks will also be used in the barn to give it different levels and to make up for not actually being able to build a full size barn due to the limited space.

For the forrest scenes i also plan on putting in a few tree stumps instead of stage blocks. This way, it compliments the set and doubles up as a prop for Willie and Peter's opening scene. The actors can improvise with them and work them into the scene.
