For our final rehearsal before our performance, we brought in all the shoes we had collected (so far). Whilst looking at our piece, it was brought to our attention that the grandstand is used as a mosque now and so people would remove their shoes outside the building before entering. In using this idea we decided to place the shoes outside the front of the grandstand and walk them around to the back during our piece.

Outside the front of the grandstand there is a designated drop off area which we felt would be a great starting place for the shoes (as shown in the picture above), as it is like the shoes have been ‘dropped off’ and as the shoes represent the bodies of the mortuary it gives a metaphorical insight into what the grandstand might have been like as a mortuary. Having done our final rehearsal it became clear more shoes are needed to have our desired effect.
