all or nothing

Earlier when I was looking through articles I found one that made me sort of uncomfortable and I wasn’t going to deal with it at all.  But, I’ve decided to against myself to try to work through this one.  Ok.  So Wolverhampton’s Grand Theatre was doing a production of Snow White, and they had to […]

radicality in dialogue

Something that struck me in my research on my Greek adaptation Steelbound was the article I found from one of the cast members and then the company and playwright’s reaction to it.  The Sarah Brady argues about the radicality of the piece and criticizes the entire process throughout the article.  The others respond in fury […]

Pigpen theatre co.

This was my first post, but I just realized that I messed up the blogs earlier and it didn’t post on the group one, but my individual one?  I don’t know but here it is!! Pigpen theatre co. is an upcoming group of seven fantastic young men who joined together to create stories that are […]

picture this

Rummaging through the Guardian, I stumbled across an article  about Robert Lepage, playwright of The Blue Dragon, and how he decided to  transform his script into a graphic novel, rather than publishing the  original script.  Looking at the excerpts from the novel I thought the idea  was amazing.  It fully explodes the world.  It is such […]

a feat for the left side

Yesterday I saw “The Lie of the Mind” and I had no idea what the show was about.  I opened the program and one of the notes was about Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and I was so interested because we are studying mood and personality disorders in my psych class these past few weeks and we […]

being green

I am currently enrolled in a Production Management course where we have  to create our own theatre company and then develop our season. So  developing, developing, developing, thinking about the many shows I want  to include in my season, thinking about the budget, about the set, costumes,  props, staff, lights, and fog machines. In the […]

marvel at a new world

So we are all about to go home for thanksgiving break and I’m realizing how close winter  break is coming along.  I forgot that over the summer I talked to my cousin about writing a  play over this semester and how we could produce it over winter break.  My cousin has spinal  muscular atrophy, which […]

asking more of myself

Yesterday I was involved with a mandatory study about the Exploration of Adults’ Reasoning about Other People  for my General Psychology class.  So went to the Cognition Lab, and they put me in a small room where I had to go through a slide show of sentences and passages and rate how “friendly” or “competitive” […]

second star to the right and straight on till morning

PETER PAN IS HERE IN BOSTON!!! Peter Pan is one of my favorite stories of all time.      One of my friends from home told me about  threesixty’s production of peter pan when it first  appeared in London.  The production is in the round  and the audience is surrounded by a sort of omnimax […]

planets that are too small to be considered planets : poor pluto

Yesterday in Theatre  Ensemble and Directing 1 we  read through all of our ten-  minute plays for the Director’s  Project.  Now, searching for  these ten minute plays I kept  coming across ones I really  didn’t like and I rarely found  any I truly enjoyed.  I began to  question why I found so many  I disagreed […]

oh, what a world, what a world

I went to New York this weekend for my sister’s birthday and we decided to have a get together on the roof of her apartment to watch the sunset.  As we were baking in the heat, we suddenly saw a plane writing something across the sky.  It wrote “Last” and then we tried to guess […]

the road less traveled by

The Kampa Museum is one of my favorite museums in the world. One of my favorite artists featured in the museum was Milan Grygar.  My sister and I  explored the many facets of his work one afternoon in Prague which began with his  paintings.  Then we were introduced to his real magic, which were the […]

Someone Else’s View

Over the summer, my sister and I spent a week at the Prague Quadrennial in the Czech Republic.  Each country had an exhibit and then the students of each country had an exhibit as well.  They were all so interesting, but one of my favorites was Romania.  Their exhibit was entirely devoted to the idea […]
