THE SCORE:
The Score is the order of events with basic tech notes.
Times are approximate and used as a guide in the making more than in the real-time-with-audience performing.
Pre-show audience enters:
MUSIC: live, feedback... 3’
• Dawon and Trae hold up wall, downstage
• Meghan sits in rectangle of light where room will be built
• Constance & Omar hand out facts to audience (Omar only speaks Spanish)
• Tracy alone at cage
• Matt & April exploring feedback with amp & mic & sensor & ...
• Jorge teaches Nestor capoiera & Mexican folklorico dancing
