In this update, hot on the heels of my update looking forward at the whole of 2025, I get right down into the nitty gritty a lot of the things I talked about in that.

YTG

  • INTERFERENCE
    • We started rehearsals on Tuesday
    • Already some friction because the two originators have very strong views
      • We had a discussion that everyone in the room is an artist and this is collaborative
    • A bunch of people had to leave early on Wednesday, so we stopped working at 14:00
    • New semi-member Anna was there and took photos, which I hope I’ll be able to drop on you soon
    • We may start moving pieces of art into JDS as early as this coming Tuesday
  • ANXIETY
    • I had hoped that Tania Coke from tarinainanika would join me in directing this
      • Timing didn’t work out
      • She or partner Ken will teach a workshop
    • I made a feasibility budget, and it looks decent
      • People can get honorariums and there’s enough left over to help defer operating expenses
    • Need to contact Davion to talk about dates
      • He wants a full-time rehearsal schedule
      • JDS can’t accommodate that
      • Am trying to book Steep Slope Studio in the Hinodecho area
    • SO CLOSE to putting ink on this contract
  • GENERAL
    • Showdates for both shows are set
      • Spring (INTERFERENCE showcase): April 5/6
      • Summer (Double Bill) July 26/27
        • Aug 2/3 wasn’t available
    • JDS’s owner and our primary contact at our venue, Noriko, is in the hospital
      • Back surgery
      • She is currently recovering
      • They are going to need my help for an event in March, right before our show
