back in the director' seat

I started my rehearsals for the show I'm directing for the opening season of the Curious Comedy Theater. The show is called POP! - it's based on the Neo-Futurists show titled Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind, where the cast does 30 plays in 60 minutes.
It's a great exercise is writing, performing, energy and a unique show. I'm taking the basic elements of it, but hopefully turning it into something a little different, or at least different enough.
I have a cast of 8 folks and a bunch of ideas for scene/playwriting. I"m really looking forward to this rehearsal process to see what we come up with. The show is going to be a lot of fun.
*but not as fun as this crazy Portland coffee house.
