![]() On April 20th we performed a special preview of Sincerely Rescripted as a work in progress at Kinetic Arts Center in Oakland, CA to a warm and generous audience. Between the laughter and tears both on and off stage, we were humbled by the experience. Never before have we felt such a deep connection to each other and our community. To date we have received over 120 letters from 5 states, 2 countries and counting. The letters and stories of our community resonate within us all and have helped us develop our quality and intention as performers. In this renewed, raw and vulnerable state we are creating our best work to date. Directly following our Sincerely Rescripted Preview Performance I asked the audience to sum up their experience in one word on the back of their program and post it on a board in the lobby, and this is what people had to say… Connected, Passionate, Touched, Creative, Incredible, Heartfelt, Connecting, Emotional, Entertaining, Fun, Honesty, Memorial, Heart-song, Emotional, Core, Strength, Body, Voice, Word, Intense, Moving, Beautiful, Wonderful, Heart-wrenching, Remember, Tapestry, Celebrate, Honoring, Whole Hearted, Inspiring, Quirky, Great Grandpa wrote letters…1809, A serene and reflective experience! I then asked the performers the same question, and this is what they had to say... Pure, Delightful, Holistic, Present, Embodied, Witnessing, Honoring, Personal, Expression, Exhilarating, Mind. Heart. Body., Cleansing, Beauty, Prolific, Emotional. The audience, dancers and musicians shared in the CONNECTED – HONORING – HEART – EMOTIONAL – BEAUTIFUL - BODY performance experience. We look forward to future opportunities to share our progress with the World. Thank you to our wonderful audience and all The Muses who danced and played your hearts out! - Abby
