A bit of a delay in writing this, but Friday’s performance still holds in my memory in a way that most things do not. This form of engagement with both the mind and the body is so unique for me, that it makes me wonder how similar work would look inside of other courses. This class is one I will cherish.

We continue not to rely on any type of script, and the depth of our dialogues continues to feel superficial, though I think what we are able to express as a group is not. On that note: this work feels like it could be significant if it were expressed in the context of veterans groups, or even as a fun – sort of Anne-Shelby style pop-up for strangers.

Overall, I think the Professors have done a tremendous job of creating a safe space to fail, so that carrying out the performance felt natural, easy, and fun.
