Jul. 2nd, 2008 09:51 amLast night all 8 of the short play groups who're part of the Theatre@First Summer Festival got together to perform in front of each other for the first time. It was so good! I LOVE everyone in my crew and think we have a great energy together (and I'm proud to report that after hard work and hours of practice,
brief_life and I were able to successfully do a fist bump. Yes, we are JUST THAT WHITE).
It was also really fascinating seeing all the plays as a group, both for the enjoyment factor (I need to pause and note that I had no idea that
urban_faerie_ was so good at physical comedy) and for the insights it gave--you can't watch 8 pieces by the same writer without coming away with a better sense of how his mind works. (Or hearing
surrealestate's voice in your head. Same thing, nearly.)
Speaking of how minds do and don't work, in real life I have almost no connection with Brandeis University. So why was my dream last night like a recruitment ad for it? First there were the flamingo flocks I walked through in the parking lot, then the floating mountains connected by rope bridges where the classes were held, and then when I went into the coffeeshop everyone yelled my name like I was Norm from 'Cheers'.
I remember blurting out "Wow! I feel like Doctor Who!" I have NO IDEA what I meant.
