What's inside is NOT a lie.

OUR FIRST WEEK!!!


Tuesday July 8th, 2008
Our first week has been quite and interesting and busy one. The first meeting at the Blaustein Building kicked off nicely with everyone’s amiable demeanor helping lighten the atmosphere and helping everyone get to know each other. Eric cleverly maneuvered the class into intriguing conversations about reviews and criticism, a perfect way to start out our summer as Teen Critics in TRaC. Surprising us with a spontaneous (but planned) visit to Tom Sachs’ Bronze Collection, the group got a chance to go experience each other’s company outside our conference room and in a setting that we have to get used to over the next few weeks.

Then came Passing Strange at the Belasco Theater. Our first theater experience together was delightful and as cheesy as this sounds, a magical one. Stew’s charm settles upon everyone reverberating all of the key elements of the musical in a unique but broadway-esque manner. We took a few pictures after the show and in general, everyone had an AWESOME time.

On Thursday, we ended up at Public Space 122 for the peculiar but interesting proto-type performance, Whisper. A new take on the perception of reality, the shadows danced around for 50 minutes as many of our minds simply stumbled through keeping up and patiently listening to the incessant and powerful dripping of water. I might have a bit of a problem writing that review tonight. That’s all for this week folks!
