Leah Muller: Improvisation of the nocturnal games

Actor Leah Muller describes how after the rehearsals one night, she and the other girls improvised the dancing in the woods that is supposed to have occurred. They got into character and, with props like flour, earth and sticks, started beating on a drum, singing and dancing. Leah says that eventually, she and the other girls became caught up in the improvisation and felt the excitement and fear it generated.
