David Hirst - Us and Them Day 2



Day 2 at the Us and Them workshop proved to be way more eventful than day 1. David's requirements included those "wonderful" plastic chairs , 8 feet long bamboos and cardboard boxes! The plan was to block the play and build the wall that divided "us and them"....






Soon,lines were learned,lunch was eaten and then began the crazy task of building a wall (silently!)... David added a bollywood touch to post wall building-breaking fight scene by making it slow motion... 




Suddenly, the room was cluttered with 20 plastic chairs...After much thinking, pushing and pulling of chairs and metres and metres of tape, a WALL was built......

                                         
The whole idea was about team work and building the wall without making noise( that was the most challenging bit because we have a noisy and overly enthusiastic bunch!)                                  
                                             




And now we have a wall, we have a group A and B...We have a "Us" and a "Them"



The next session will have some more wall building but with a twist.......



And the lesson we learned today was

Latecomers will not be permitted....!
