Subject:     Tempest Weblog - November

Friends-

Here's my monthly summary of posts on our weekly weblog on the evolution 
of our mask/puppet staging of THE TEMPEST, opening Sept. '09.  Hope 
you'll visit; comments & questions welcome.

(No posting the first week of this past month, having been obsessed with 
the election.)

#8 - Storyboard for Act 1 Sc. 1, the storm.
#9 - Our first workshop with actors. Work on voice & its linkage with 
physical action. Shakespeare's realism with an expanded stylistic 
expression. Iambic pentameter's unkillable assertiveness. Making puppets 
breathe.
#10 - Storyboard continues: Act 1 Sc. 2, Prospero & Miranda.
#11 - The recurrences of the storm. A new puppet technique (if my lame 
wrist heals). And thoughts about the singular notion of casting Prospero 
as a male.

Peace & joy-
