What are the neighbors thinking?

Posted by DCA Theater on August 12, 2008 in July-December 2008 Season, In The Curious Hold of the Demeter

Pre-production notes from Incurable Theater:

Unfortunately for all, our studio build shop is located in an old factory that has been built out with paper thin walls. This situation quite often leads to annoyance/confusion/ excitement or horror depending on who is listening on which side of the wall.

Last night our neighbors might have heard conversations coming from our side of the wall regarding the following matters if they tried hard enough:

* what color should the fake sculpy rotting teeth should be?
* the opening ceremony of the Olympics and all its glory (Jennifer can’t shut up about it)
* discussion of the man on the bus who cut off the head of his fellow passenger on the way to Canada?
* much squealing of cast members running around trying out the mini puppet body characters (see pics) and getting into tiny fist fights and tiny philosophical conversations
* what items we needed to replenish at the shop- this list included rubber ears, hair rollers, Musky brand fishing line, fake cigars, quilt batting to make giant puppet bosoms, and more beer

....as you can see this is a very serious build.
