An improvisation, movement score for Environmental Warriors aged 5 – 8, to be performed outside or with a view of nature
Stand, comfortably and think about your favourite place in nature
Move slowly and carefully draw your favourite place in nature using your body. Describe the shapes of the trees, the lines of the grass, maybe include the movement of animals or insects.
Suddenly!
Crumple your body like aluminium foil
Sludge your body like slime
Fold your body like cardboard
Mix them all together as fast as you possibly can, crumple, sludge, fold, crumple, sludge, fold. Can one part of your body fold while another part crumples? Faster!
At the same time turn around and around.
Let go and drop to the floor.
Pick up your body parts over and over again to come to standing.
Smile, stretch your body parts away from you like your body is smiling.
