Briefly...

Welcome to 'cameron-can-juggle' the official blog site for a continually morphing work of dance/theatre.
This blog hopes to let you in on the real story behind the work by documenting the creative process and sharing it.
No two performances will ever be the same, since the aim of the work is to remain continuously open to change.

Alone in a crowd
Laughing till you cry
Suffocated by intimacy






A structured improvisation
from
the people who brought you..

Thalia Laric and
Steven van Wyk

Ode to Steven


Ode to Steven

Steven you are wonderful
Your mind is a an enchanted forest
At 20'something you still play kung fu destruction
and 'let's-pretend'
...
then engage in academic discourse on social theory and anthropological philosophy
Your creativity inspires me, as does your intellect
I so enjoy working, talking, playing, thinking and creating with you
Look how the crazy things we imagined became a magical reality..

Awesome, awesome, awesome performance!

Well done you fabulous people, you rocked that stage!


I'd love to know how you all felt about the rehearsal process, the performance and the work as a whole.

Is there anything that you would have done differently? music, costumes, choreography, cake...?

How did you feel about having 'options'? Would you prefer more choreographic 'structure' or more improvisation 'freedom'?

Beware fountain in front of cafeteria.

This is going to be ReaLLy cool :)

Yay!


Good rehearsal tonight.
We're ready.
Everything works and looks great.
I am so excited to see the performance.
Thank you to the awesome cast, you guys are fabulous!

about the cake

I have a solution for the cake.
1. no icing
2. keep the movement contained
3. someone follows the couple around, picking up the crumbs
and wiping the floor with a big yellow cloth.

It fits the metaphor... and is sort of funny... in a sad kind of way.
