Tarzan The Musical - The Story Of The Mysterious Ape Man

The LeRan Advanced and Intermediate students rehearsed in only 35 training hours the magical show of Tarzan The Musical.
When reminiscing the rehearsal time of Tarzan physical and wild images come to my mind. The biggest challenge? How to step into the role of an ape? For an easier identification with the animalistic character we let every student bring a banana. The question of the first lesson: What performative elements can we establish with the objective of a banana?
The students had fantastic and entertaining ideas. Every single ape-student had the chance to create their own ape character through their own individual imagination.
Props can help the students improve their creativity, improvisation and fun on stage. That is why the inclusion of thoughtful props and stage sets is crucial to enhance any student based performances.
