David responds...

Am fascinated by the ideas and coming together of story. Not sure where it's going, bit like some water flowing down bare earth perhaps being driven by an assortment of writers/thinkers, it need not matter, though I've felt a desire to know the destination, like a river heading for the sea. Twill get there!

I like almost all the ideas. Interesting there's different levels - ground, underground, sub (what level?). Wonder if Room3 might be in sky, though the engineers shed is great. But that platform up high - sky?

Interesting too that past/present/future are all mooted, as is a timeless element. The mystery thriller could be, what will happen to planet earth's water next? answers on P.4 of your evaluation sheet please. At any rate, I am hoping we end up with Local/Global elements. It would be really good to get the environmental preciousness of (a drop of) water including a look at or warning into issues of the future, while exploring the local domination of Wimborne by water - 2 rivers, bridges, past floodings, flood plains, water under houses, the upgrading of the Edwardian water main - where does all this come in our journey through the PH?

How about the snow of the last 2 winters? Ageless, timeless fun with crystalised water.

Remember the idea of taking the audience to the PH having assembled them elsewhere? What if we could transport them there all in a double decker kitted out as a rocket/sub/WW2 evacuees train/drainpipe...? This could be a lovely pre-scene. All arrive together and into R1.
