It's been a while!

So, it's been a long time since our last post! We have been working hard and struggling to get things finished. We have both been frustrated with our inability to get a consistent flow going, and the work we have been producing seems to reflect that.

While this may be a good thing - we are working with ideas of miscommunication and confusion - it's been hard to figure out where to go with things each rehearsal. For this newest section, we have been playing with sensuality and narcissism. How do we get someone to pay attention to us? How do we flirt with others? How do we show off our bodies; tell someone, "Look at me!" These are some ideas we have been playing with.

Ideally, over the course of the evening we are trying to create, we want to come back to this idea of sexual communication. How do men and women talk to each other? What inherent confusion presents itself when a man tries to talk to a woman - do we speak the same language or are women from Venus and men from Mars?

The section we have been working on for the past week seems to be a good start...
