The idea of having act 2 outside has just this weekend been scrapped because it was unworkable due to the noise and light levels. But these are some of the things that might have happened. The Idea was to use the intermezzo like an interval. Different ideas came and went like a carnival party with chinese dragons or for a while it was a beer festival. It's a shame the outside couldn't really be used because some really exciting stuff was being talked about for going on out there, things like cars blowing up or a huge mural of Idomeneo bleeding.

Thanks for the blog.
As a member of the chorus it helps to have an idea of the design side of things enormously so we can have an inkling of the spaces we shall be in.
We did try a chorus runthrough in the cow shed but there did seem some very regular train noise causing distractions for the audience.
As Graham said usually the train noises only appear in Mozart's later works!
