Drop of Water Theater - Summary

Post by EricMagic » Sun Apr 18, 2004 2:17 pm

Volunteers Needed for Improv and Open Mike Theater with goal to be open 24 hours. Sign up now so we can get the application submitted and the planning underway ASAP.

Highlights for Volunteers: Highly efficient theme camp that needs mostly organizers, some equipment skills persons, and lively encouragers, who can do short to med work shifts. Emphasis on fun, teamwork, open organization and helping the participants, and low pressure and low burden for the volunteers, so everyone can enjoy other parts of the BMan Playa. Possibly a good theme camp for a newbie. Acoustic oriented and simple theater theme with little to no extra technology added, but an open mind is kept for each sign up performer and for the ideas of the volunteers.

Key Premise that is Deliberate: It will a simple theater design to start out, but it will evolve with the volunteers added or taking away things to enhance the ambience of the camp, or to keep in very simple in appearance, but full of interesting performances, people, and special attitudes, dances, and events. The main goals are improvisation, good performances, sign up good talent or interesting talent. Have a very creative good time without being too dependent on props, although they will be allowed and even encouraged sometimes, but with what we can find at the time, and what the volunteers and participants discover.

Participation Theme: Drop of Water - "Only one thought with one action are needed to move the world." :::: Ever Circulating Performance, Expressive Acoustical Performances of Many Types with partial to full participation of audience, and sometimes dances during the night for everyone.

Scope of Performances: Open Mike Sign Up - Can range from philosophy, comedy, storytelling, instruments, singing, and dancing, small theater, small opera, magic, and can even include science lectures, and conspiracy theories. Anywhere from 1 to 7 main performers at one time, with of course the audience as needed.

Special Note: For some select ideas, we may start some performances that simultaneously perform and travel throughout the playa in a special "Traveling Drop of Water Theater - Event".

Contact me or post a reply for more details or if interested.

Ooh! Sounds GOOD! Just some basic questions: where will you be located and how will you be powered 24/7; do you have a stage, lighting, and PA? Do you need any technical people: stage hands, carpenters, electricians? Do you need any lighting, sound gear, or special FX? 2 Las Vegas Stage Hands seeking a venue to work for BMan, will work for water, even one drop at a time! Have access to theatrical lighting, etc, and a truck to transport to BRC even, but camped in a 100% Solar powered camp... Could you use a couple old Stage Hand/Grips? E-m me with a wish-list and we'll see what we can do.
