Inspiration For Ceres Through Movement

When I was researching "The Tempest" I found this video on youtube, which was Ballet West's performance of Michael Smuin's version of "The Tempest". This is just some of the highlights, but I found it really helpful to watch for the physical aspects of the piece because I am Ceres, I will have to move around and do a lot of physical theatre. This video helped to give me some ideas on how to physically portray our characters.

I also found this really physical piece performed by Ariel in another version of "The Tempest" by Sergiu Anghel. It shows a physical performance by Ariel and portrays her as a very spirit-like, other-worldly creature and I found some inspiration from this video to include in my own performance.
