RETURN of the JEDI

APOLOGIES & EXCUSES

Almost two months have gone by... in a rehearsal room, in tech, in previews for a stunning new show Conversations In Tusculum and in a week-long workshop for the new musical FELA!.

Hamlet: What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god!

the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals—

nor woman neither, though by your smiling you seem to say so.

Rosencrantz:

Hamlet Act 2, scene 2, 303–312

The photo above is research for a new performance Todd and I have conceived, Weigh In. We plan to transform a defunct reading room in New York’s Humanities and Social Sciences Library into a boxing arena where visitors can join performers in a mixed-media battle between accurate and inaccurate information.
