Bio

I was asked to write a bio for the Theatre & Company website and came up with the following:
Douglas Campbell joined Theatre & Company's Writer's Bloc in 2001 and found writing for the theatre to be exhilarating and addictive. A fragment of his play Pamphilia was produced as part of the New Works Festival in 2003, and Little Crickets was given a workshop and public reading as part of the NU2U program in 2005. He is also involved with MTSpace Multicultural Theatre who are developing his play Yes or No! for performance in October. In his forties Douglas was seized by the dance bug, and took every kind of dance class imaginable, including Flamenco, Tap, and Highland Dancing. He has appeared on stage several times, notably in a ballet recital, where he was the only male creature within a league of the theatre. (Not all pictures have been destroyed.) He has also studied Aikido for several years and knows how to disarm an assailant wielding a sword (in theory).
This will be appearing somewhere in here soon. I hope they are able to find something for me to do, a man of my parts.

Cilla Vee

One more show, tomorrow night at Clay & Glass Gallery, 7:30pm. Movement and video. There were moments when my mind was overloaded with the projected images, the dancer and her shadow and could no longer make out what was what. Dancer, Claire Elizabeth Barratt and musician, Lee Garbutt.

Outdoors on the deck at the Huether a horner or wasp alighted on our table and with deliberation set down a pupae and flew away. Much speculation as to the significance of this event.

Cilla Vee

The MTSpace presents New York's Cilla Vee Movement Projects performing at Clay & Glass, August 16th 5:30 & 17th 7:30. The show is a half-hour long and tickets are $10. (The idea of the 5:30 start time is that people can catch it on the way home from work -- this is an experiment.) And you can hang-out with the artists afterwards; look at the picture above to decide if you think that's worthwhile. Full details on the show on the MTSpace page, and scroll down for a movement workshop conducted by Cilla Vee. Oh, and scroll up, way up, for a note on Yes or No!, playwright me, and I wish there were pictures of our wonderful cast, who are already busy at work developing.

(New York -- that oughta get them over from the Perimeter Institute.)
