Thoughts about last night



Thoughts

What’s intriguing is that the performers’ memories are being warmed up.  They are starting to relate personal disappearances in almost confessional ways.

So, you left your life at 17 and moved to another country?
So, you used to disappear from your family for 3-4 days at a time just to go off into the woods and sleep under hedges?
You used to follow people and the game for you was never being seen?
You got on better and better with your mother the more she slipped into dementia?

I love these stories.  They add truth and depth and integrity to the work.  They add weight and intrigue.

They wring out the heaviness of disappearance.
