Day 9

Sorry this is late! We didn't have internet last night in our little cabin!

Here’s our space! I thought it was about time you guys saw where we are working! It is impossible to see in this pic, but right off of the deck is a beautiful view of a mountain. This is such an inspiring rehearsal space surrounded by nature and    FRESH AIR.

This is CJ, deep in thought creating some kind of magical moment. Today he focused on Mike Huckabee (not the Mike Huckabee you are thinking of)—Detroiter Mike Huckabee, the man who runs a beat-making school for youth in Detroit. All of our moments today also focused on FORM—what is the role of the audience in this moment? Are they members of a town hall meeting? Are they screaming what they are afraid of? Are they eating bread?

Speaking of bread… …

I baked my first loaf of bread today! This is not your typical domestic goddess bread, it is “Bread and Puppet Theatre” kind of bread. (Cheap Art Manifesto) A theatre company with a rich history and a simple philosophy: Art should be cheap and for the masses. Art is meant to be shared together.
