Processing the Process
I intended, as all theatre bloggers do, to chronicle the process of this piece. To really give the world a window onto the world we are creating….
and like all theatre bloggers I haven’t managed it.
This has been a process that has taken place all over Austin (and the WORLD) and is as much individual as collaborative.
For a performer of standard straight plays, we have spent a relatively small amount of time In the Room, and an inordinate amount of time outside of the room fiddling the technical aspects of the show.
Which of course is what the show needs…
That, and Christo’s own supply of fabric and three cords worth of branches….
But the magic is that instead of a process through which we meld the flavors over 6 weeks in a room together, we have the performative equivalent of a potluck. A potluck where you trust every cook to bring something you love, and a cook who is excited to be sowing up to the party…
No tuna noodle casserole here.
Some additional shots from rehearsal to cover for the lack of words here at T-Minus 2 Weeks.
