Grade 5 : Developing trust between the members of the drama team


Trust is a big step on improving the relationship between a theatrical team.
How much do you trust the other members of your team?
Are you willing to "lose" your vision and follow their voice?



 
Catch the ball, without stepping on the obstacles

make sure you listen carefully to the leader of your team...

Leo is a moving obstacle...

...and Lucille seems to enjoy it!

Oh, no...How are we going to give the right directions?

Jonathan is listening!
