Cut up Close up

Well, I had a good time today, and I think the audience did too. 

It was so nice to perform in a white space as we rehearse in one.  It felt like a coming home -there were theatre people there and art people and in the white space everything was illuminated, magnified and, I felt, given time to grow which isn’t always the case in a black box (theatre) convention.  Instead of asking “what is this?” I found myself asking “what will it be?” or “what will it grow into?”.

At the end of the evening we went back into the gallery and the energy had really changed.  One of the art pieces has been taken off of the wall and is now placed on the floor, the animals have been given wall space and new pieces are included.  The texts I’d written and spoken during the event are framed and hung next to the performance score.  The whole room said: something occured here, something happened and it has transformed us and, more importantly, we are not afraid to show this and share it.

The exhibition will stay like this until it closes on the 28th November.  I’ve put some photographs of the text written in the performance which is now on sale in the gallery in my album.
