Sooo anyways
Been away for a while. The theatre company I ran for almost two decades collapsed, my gig as a grants manager collapsed, and my health kinda collapsed, too (big surprise, huh?) Good news is, Im better now, getting better every day. Ive re-joined my life already in progress, and am keeping busy with stuff. Working on Vaudeville pieces, early 19th century drama, dada performance and other styles and modalities in eclipse. A common thread is emerging in my work I call it full frontal performance none of this fourth wall "method realism" crap. I dont care if a performance entertains, confuses, amuses or confronts as long as it directly engages the audience. If you want to be a voyeur peering into life, go watch a movie the movies will always do that better. What the movies cant provide is that direct engagement with another human being. So, thats my tawdry little story in a nutshell. Hows everyone else been?
