See You in Court!



An Aberdeen Performing Arts and Ten Feet Tall Co-production



The Journey



how we created the show...



Research





We went to National Archives of Scotland to look at the official court papers of the Trial.



Visit the Court Room





We had to make sure we develped the re-enactment with factually as possible to what happened. The court process involved over 20 officials. We had only 4 actors to tell the whole story. So it was important we utilised the space as best we could and had a focus on each audience members exeperience.



Writing





A team of three writers broke the story down into sections and over the course of one month they wrote the whole script for the hour trial re-enactment.
