Behind Waters is a video blog series produced by Jess Rogers from Woodroffe School, who spent a week in the rehearsals room of The Day the Waters Came. Rather than us boasting about ourselves, we got Jess who is an ambitious aspiring actress to produce content relevant to her point of view.
So here is Jess' last video where she tells us about seeing the show's full production and meeting up with the cast again.

On the 4 October 2012, the Everyman Theatre Cheltenham Skylines group held the first sharing of Skylines writers' work. Ten play extracts were presented and read by professional actors to an audience of young people who then offered their honest critiques. At Theatre Centre we believe in developing work for young people through involving them all the way through the process.

Participants were invited to attend a week-long Summer School at Hoxton Hall 4-8 June 2012. Young people from these schools came together to devised and create a final 'Tell it!' performance open for free to the public on Friday 8, 3pm and 6pm. In this video the young people, audience members and practitioners let us in on their views of the Summer School week and the project. Theatre Centre has been awarded a Transformers grant, funded by The National Lottery, through the Olympic Lottery Distributor, and managed by East London Business Alliance.

Tell it! Summer School participants are blogging creatively about their week at Hoxton Hall, London 4-8 June 2012.
Young Londoners from five of the Olympic Boroughs are telling it how it is. The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games have landed on their doorstep and each of these young people has a story to tell: from changing bus routes to ever-lengthening commutes, from hopes of sporting brilliance to apathetic resistance.
These stories have been brewing over the last six months and are ready to be gulped down. Come and have your fill and take your place on the starting line.
Performances will take place Hoxton Hall, 3pm and 6pm.
Tickets are free, but need to be booked in advance.
