The satisfaction of handing a flyer over to someone who says
“Oh good, I’ll come tomorrow. Thankyou”
I gave out a hundred of these today to people with children.
My eyes learned to spot the short person really fast and I darted through the Garden making friends with shy, upturned faces until nearly 9pm.
The weird feeling when all your besties are in another show
so you go to see something alone.
Cantina.
All that skin and muscle and skill
and of course the thing I find utterly compelling is a face. The absolute
presence in a quiet face. It makes me think of Gaulier saying “Do not show us
your grimace.” One act furious the next the next submissive and watchful; yet
the eyes and lips barely change shape. This is the skill I am most interested
in watching.
Tomorrow we open Kapow and we haven’t sold many tickets. I
am bedtime nervous, bag already packed so I don’t forget anything…
