performers' brief

Finally, I enclose one of Artaud's film scenarios 'Eighteen Seconds' (never produced) and four short scenarios and a few gruesome pictures from the French 'Grand Guignol' theatre which I hope can act as a springboard for some ideas (they're out of copyright, by the way). e.g. it might be fun to enact bits, deconstruct bits, or to make up our own strange little scenarios etc. It's worth remembering that the Internet relays video quite jerkily like old silent movies (although audio is very smooth and clear) so it would suit the expressionistic/melodramatic style of these scenarios well.

The Schedule
The plan is to work from Monday August 14th until the performances on Weds 23 and Thurs 24 August (both 7.30). I'm hoping everyone's available for all or at least most days - let me know if you've any problems on any day.

Also, I'm hoping everyone's available to come to my house for a meal, meeting, drinking and general bonding session from 5 pm Saturday 12th August - put it in the diary, details to follow.

Can't wait!
