They attend Beaumont College, Lancaster, a specialised college of further education for spastic children.

Deals with practical difficulties relating to this specific workshop. Shows a segment of a rehearsal of ‘Hiawatha’, one of the week’s drama projects ‘Hiawatha’. Aims to enable the viewer to examine this segment of the project as it develops through the rehearsal period.
