Good morning blog readers,
I have this amazing access to a stage in New York City and I am looking for ideas to place upon this space. The stage is a long
stretch of pavement along the East River on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. In this space there are people enjoying views, walking dogs, going on first dates and doing other
after-work-activities that take them way out of the present moment. I looking to wake them and myself up and would love your help to do so.
So here is the assignment: post any
performance piece you would like me to
attempt in this beautiful space. I have a partner who is willing to do anything with me -he is 6'9" with red hair and if you can think of
specific things for him to do I'm sure he'll be into. Use his
height to your
advantage. For example we are planing on doing a
piece which involve high volume lip-sinking in masks while my partner dances in a fish
costume around me. We'll do anything we think is meaningful in its own right.
Once we
receive your idea, I'll respond back just to have a dialog with you and then be off to the space to perform. I want to have a dialog so that it's a
collaboration with my readers instead of just someone telling me what to do. There could be pictures or
video tapes of all these performances if you want but I'm more into the
written word so I'd prefer to just post some words on the
experience.
So let me know what you think and send your idea - the weather is exciting and I'm warm inside with a bug of doing things.
