Free Falling

I'm in desperate need for a creative outlet.

Working on my plays, and reading my artsy fartsy stuff is great. But I'm an addict and my drug of choice is performing. I'm on the hunt for a dealer. But until then, I'm going through withdrawal.

Forgive me if I sound like a tree-hugging, crystal-wearing hippie. But performing allows me to transcend. It is the little gift, God's given me to make the world a better place. Not performing, is like littering. And I'm no litter bug.

Soon. That's what I keep telling myself. In the meantime I'll continue to treat my classes like a show. Where I play a teacher in Japan. A teacher with some sort of malady...lupus. Yes, I'll play a teacher with lupus who moonlights as a ninja. Yes, a lupus ninja. A teaching lupus ninja.

I TOTALLY understand. Am taking a solo performance workshop and in the piece I'm working on, I say "I need to create the way some people need a cigarette."

I am imagining that you come across the Japanese equivalent of WIT: a Japanese Mark, a Japanese Topher... a Japanese RFDs...

Good luck :)
