a thought or two

Monologues.
Poems.
News Clips.
Word groupings.

Spoken by actors on stage. With specific staging. (this will provide the framework for dancers) ... initially spoken one at a time... ideally with dramatic spot lighting.

Each speaker paired with a solo dancer.... movement improv'd to the words, intensity, location of actor on the stage. By the time of performance this will be organized into general ideas to avoid confusion - but still open for manipulation.

Mess with overlapping, slicing, intermixing, interlacing words, speakers, dancers.

No music. Voice, silence, movement are vehicles for communication in this portion. (perhaps musicians can help/double as speakers here, as well as dancers)
