A Guide to Fearless Creating (Hushing)

Grocery Store Musical

A friend posted this on Facebook the other day and it reminded me how performance can be anywhere. (God what a stupid thing to say) I think I mean an audience can be anywhere/ anyone. (Or does that sound worse?) Anyway I think I needed that reminder. I think sometimes I forget how much a little comedy and having the ‘Bollocks’ to do something go far. Sometimes I/ an audience take things to seriously.

Again it makes me think about audience and witness. The importance of a captive audience? How much a witness/ audience needs to be informed? The difference between audience and witness?

Here it is the acknowledgement of a non-voluntary ‘Witness’ that is important. Although in a traditional sense this should be thought of as an audience it is definitely a witness. Is this terminology important? Is willingness important? Especially in relation to conformity?

(I think I may have begun to spout a load of nonsense! I know this had a lot of relevance to me when I first watched it but though technology not being my friend I have completely forgot its importance. I hoped by writing about it anyway it would come back to me... obviously not. I am just talking my self in circles of questions)

I think what is becoming more and more important to me is audience. Who are they? Do they know they are an audience? The knowingness of them, there conformity, and indeed do I even need them at all?

Moreover I think it may have been a jolt to remind me to inject some spontaneity and wit back into my work.

GOD HOW MUCH CAN ONE PERSON SAY ‘I THINK’?!? APOLOGIES!
