NOTES FROM THE WAVERLY...
-swivel chairs
-body as body of water (70% of earth, of human)
-endless ocean, no beginning, no end
-locales: underwater aria, cloud aria
-grief: water as escape for survival
-flooding of the gorges in China, ancient underwater cities
-apathy from abroad... what can I do to help? nothing. shutting out tragedy, different perspectives on the same event, empathy vs. safety
-the contemporary vs. the historical, the quotidian vs. the epic
-playing with scale
-temporary distortion blog - http://temporarydistortion.blogspot.com/
-audience involvement-all drink water together; all hold breath together; different ticket prices; ways of approximating experience and involving an audience viscerally (event theatre), cell phone or computer usage during the show, audience determines how the show goes
-first memory of water (nearly drowning, learning to swim)
-fake news cast... is the world drowning while we all sit in a theatre? What is being buried, and why, and how will we deal with it when we open the doors and the water pours in?
