 Rehearsal With El Teatro Jornalero!

Rehearsals at the beginning stage of any of our projects usually means a lot of sitting for me. The actors spend 2 hours doing physical exercises and the last hour is left for discussion and planning. I'm sure as they begin to develop characters I'll be able to be more actively involved.

Last night the USF students who will be assisting us this semester came by to meet and participate in rehearsal. There are seven students who will research the subject of deaths along the US-Mexico border and all other connected issues.

DVD update: Before rehearsal I went over to the offices of the Bay Area Video Coalition, very nice people. I left the mini dv and was told that by Monday, Tuesday the latest, the DVD would be ready.

This weekend I want to relax. This will be my first truly free Saturday in a while. I'm looking forward to it. Next weekend I have the first two workshops for the Intergenerational Writer's Lab (on Saturday and Sunday). In fact, Wednesday is the reception for the writers. So I should do some relaxing.

I'm also thinking about the next play bake-off. I've got a few ideas in my head and need to just sit with them for a bit.
