From our resident skate-guru
Berlin has been three days of navigation: the city and the performance spaces. Between demystifying transit maps and unlocking how to present our mosaic of a show, we´re becoming masters of scrutiny. Looms the question: Where we at?
As Dustin said, we legged it to four spaces. Forum Kreuzberg -- the second space into which we ventured and our first traditional black box -- demonstrated how far my mind has run from centre-stage presentation. Oh boy. Figuring out how to stage this highly changeable show in diverse spaces, I discovered the central joy of _13 ways_ for me: intimacy and audience engagement. I´m using this pursuit of intimacy as my compass. It´s guiding me through these streets and stage wings.
Keeping it real,
Steph
