National Theatre characters in motion

Here are the characters of National Theatre who enacted their most significant trait of their role in play. I am afraid I can’t recall each of the character’s and play’s names, but here is my best effort to capture their movements and expressions. They were highly professional and felt like moving wax models. Have a close look at the 8 pictures below to see what they were enacting.

Hi Supr,

South Bank festival was one of those typical London fets. these pictures are of one of the events there which was the National Theatre's play's characters enacting their most significant act, over and over again, more stood like moving wax models.

They were also termed the ghosts of the plays, and there were a couple of dozen artists. I can't recall these character's names in their plays, also I'ven't been to many of these plays so am not well informed.

I captured a round of stills of these artists but it didn't speak itself of what they were upto. Long exposure pictures weren't good enough as well. These pictures are a layered merge of a combination of exposure and quick stills at higher ISO's. I am quite satisfied with the outcome.

So, you are looking at living models enacting a small sequence (2 seconds) of their most significant action or expression or emotion of their characters from their respective plays, at the South Bank Festial - National Theatre.

:o)
