There is something wondrous and inimitable about live performance that continues
to fascinate. The magic of an artistic event unfolding
and moving through "real" time, live, in front of spectators.
It cannot be repeated or accurately captured by any other
medium. When that magic happens, there is a rush of vibrant
energy exchange between audience and performer. A great
peak in a life as art.
A special thanks to all the muses and mentors over the years:
Rachel Rosenthal,
R. Sky Palkowitz, Kate Hamm, Larry Kelley, Gronk, Charles Busch,
Ken Roht, Theodora Skipitares, David Zippel, Tim Miller,
Maria Irene Fornes, Nilo Cruz,
U of Iowa Theatre Faculty, my peers in this grand conspiracy,
and last, but not least, Kenneth Symington & all the men of The Invisible Theater.
