WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO????



We are 2 weeks and 3 days away from the opening night of The Heyokah Project and this is what our script currently looks like:


I am not kidding.  Our script and performance plan is just a series of handwritten post-it notes that are taped to a white poster board.  WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?

That question was the basis of our rehearsal today; what exactly do we want to do for the show?  We have spent almost 2 weeks playing and experimenting with the idea of the heyokah, but now is the time to create concrete performance pieces.  After a 3 hour discussion, we concluded that our show is probably going to explore the question "what is a heyokah?" 

Yes.  That is what we took 3 hours to decide.  Devising theater is not the most straightforward of all art forms...
