###### **[River Creatures Party by Taunton's River Tone but Raw Sewage in the Water turns it into a Poo Party - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ve0mu0uZ1E)**

##### **Brief Action Plan for Sharing**

**Location** - busy park, Saturday morning, polluted River Tone in background. 

**Props and Costumes** - long table so we can all sit behind, in shot. Tablecloth smeared in sewage with banner "Stop the Poo-lution" and "crockery" which is bits of old plastic taken from the river plus "Crisis, What Crisis?" tea-pot. 

Guests are wearing animal heads and human colourful clothing to match their creature.

**Workshop on how to make animal heads being run on Wednesday 1st March on Zoom, with local artist Jenni Dutton, all welcome! (link to follow)**

Also at the party are citizen scientists in hazmat suits (under a fiver at builders merchants) with clip boards, testing the river water in jugs on table, which animals are drinking.

##### **Soundtrack**
**[Swimming In It by Beans on Toast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYnzlhctOiY)** - perfect length and really added something.<bt>
Whilst it's playing - creatures dance around table, drink lots of river water, eat turd and poo cakes and gradually all die. Citizen scientists express angst and grief. Final scene is a tableau of dead creatures, debris and banners.
