Project

I have really enjoyed working on this experiential project with Sarah, Margie, and Cynthia. I'm excited for Tuesday when it all comes together. Though I had to be out of town last class, I've kept in touch with my group members in order to find out and contribute to how the process was changing and growing. We are lucky in this group that we have known each other for a few semesters, are friendly with one another, and typically keep in touch outside of class fairly consistently.
As Margie noted, the idea for this project came from an acting exercise I did with Nan Smithner in my "Creative Play" class in the educational theatre department. The group really liked the idea of free conversational improvisation, and so we have worked to musicalize it and make it an engaging experience for the class. I don't want to say too much here because I don't want to give away all the fun, but we are very much looking forward to sharing this work with the class, and seeing where it goes!
