I think that you are talking about the same kind of exhibit they also had at the Children's Museum in Los Angeles at it's inauguration and for many years - a kind of a milky white Plexiglas surfaced room/floor where people would hold a pose, wait for a flash of light, and then be able to step away and see their shadows on the walls and floor for a brief period of time. If that is the same type of thing as your frozen shadows room, I have to agree with your visitors that it has always been one of my favorite interactive museum spaces. What if you added the elements of literacy and story. Could you have some shadow backdrops (city skyline, forest, western mesas, space/planetary things), props, costume elements that would enable people to make story tableaus? Would there be a way to capture the image on film/printout and tell a little story in storyboard or booklet form?Perhaps visitors could "read" the story efforts of previous shadow storytellers. Maybe "speech balloons" props could be made out of plexiglass outlined in black and they could have pre-printed words, or people could write dialogue on them and then hold them up to make shadows. Even without additional props or story elements or permanent records of the poses, that activity will always be a winner. It is dramatic, happening in light and shadow. It is interactive, getting people to use their whole bodies. It is beautiful with shadows and edges of rainbow light. Best of luck!
