Anna and I saw alternative theatre and all we could say was "where is Luverne"!!!! well, actually we said a lot more than that, cause a lot of it was really cool, but we did wish luverne had been there. The play was called "Bacchaefull"--a take on the greek Dionysus story of wild woman, defying gods, and punishment. It was in this amazingly creepy building(woyzeck much?) and we were toured though the space by the actors. The caverns of this place were emense, and we were totally transported. Not all of the acting was great, but enough of the experience made up for that. visually and often physically it was terrifying and great! and there was such beautiful incorporation of abtsrtact imagry to tell very basic human stories. They used a mirror in the hand to show the head of a dead man, while that man(the actor) played his own mother, holding the mirror!!! it was awesome! Afterwards we drank some long island iceteas with the bfas and had an all round great time.
IN other news, i am considering making this kate's "semester abroad"as opposed to kates's 6 months......i am having an amazing life changing, growing up experience, but i think 4 months might be a better length for this girl. Also my need and desire to get back into the theatre world is overpowering, It's the whole you need to be away from a thing to realize how much you love it. If i get back in sooner i can still audition for summer stock, even some schools.........it's starting to feel right. we'll see, legistics, legistics.
