Re: RAT Which Idea Now?



Howdy all, here's my first three criteria for moving forward on a project with big art group.
1 Is the project "wrong" in some way?
2 Should I "know better" than to move forward with the idea or project?
3 Is it relevant to big art group's audience?

If the answere is yes to all three, then we move on to finding out how much we will have to beg barrow and steal to make it happen. Our next project is called SHELF LIFE and will open 03.28.01 and run for five weeks at the Kraine Theatre in NYC.

Marching towards a broken theatre!
