…that moment in conversation and interaction when a lot is being said, though nothing is being said. Pause and silence. There, where being and empathy begins and the acting is done. The razor’s edge that cuts through the play as known narrative to the play as it re-creates itself again. The players their text […] Assist ye extempore gods of rime for I am sure i shall turn sonnets! Quartos fill’d with his most high deserts. So go through the first 17 sonnets and look for the sprung lines. (in the quarto facsimile or a sparsely edited version) There are an awful lot of examples. Almost every sonnet! […] …i thought i’d made it up but no it exists in the urban dictionary. As does blography. Either way it exists! If you can’t make the show tomorrow night here’s some content: The purpose of this show is to see this Quarto of Sonnets by William Shakespeare as a whole, which is apparently MORE than […] …asked to provide some info for the paper i sat down to enumerate the reasons. Basically they appeal to my higher nature. I have become a more ethical and moral person by holding up the imperfect mirror the sonnets represent. Ethics shape the personality and character.
