Oh, its sad.

I have been seriously neglectful of this blog. Came home from New Orleans, and at the last minute signed up to assist puppeteer Erik Ruin with his epic shadow puppet show at Puppet Uprising's May Day Cabaret this weekend. His other assistant couldn't do it, and he needed someone quick! We rehearsed for hours in a few short days, and I was charged with remembering a very long and complex series of motions and steps involved in running the show, which I didn't pull off without huge mistakes until the first performance. EEEK!

It ended up going well, and it was a big honor to get to work on the piece with Erik. I learned a lot about how to do a shadow puppet show with lots of unconventional methods using 2 overhead projectors. Yay!

Now, 2 big design projects due this week, while packing my apartment for the big move on Friday. Thanks to those of you who check my blog despite my neglect. I'll be back with a vengeance next week. Until then, all my blog post ideas are accumulating in my mental files.
