RAT On a Quest

[InTheLime@aol.com]

And now for something completely different.

The Vagabond Acting Troupe is searching around for a good movement program
(weeklong workshops) in June to which we can travel with some of the best and
brightest Vagabonds and exert ourselves outside normal operating procedure.  I
was hoping to attend Del Arte (late June) during the Mad River Festival...but
I'm not sure that the workshops they have planned during that time frame are
really what I was looking for.  I have a short window of opportunity...June 14
through July 4, in which to do some summer training (preferably one or two
weeks for the entire workshop).  I want edgy.  I want a physical release type
experience for my folks...I want to be pushed (uhm...in a nice way) as we've
had a grueling year, and I'd like to have us retreat in style.  Along the
lines of Del Arte...and we may yet go there...

I'm looking for options and thought...HM...THE RATS WILL HAVE
SUGGESTIONS...THEY LOVE TELLING ME WHERE TO GO!

So - door is open.  Any ideas folks?  I'm leaning towards CA since I have
sanction from spouse to spend the cash...and when sanctioned, one should take
the money and run.  But all states are worth considering (is there still
something exciting going on in Vermont, or is that a dead theatre world now?)
Seattle is cool as well.... Anyway, YOUR MISSION:  Lead me to the fount of
physical theatre.  

Right now I'm striving with great difficulty to remain in the state of
consciousness.  So no great words of wisdom pour forth, instead I seek your
guidance.
