a short thought about it: this piece is becoming more and more precious to me. it’s been a very special (both difficult and fulfilling) process of work, and now it’s coming to some sort of conclusion. and the more the work becomes precious, the more scared and nervous I get about my (our) encounter with the audience.
I’ve been writing a lot today and I think this vulnerability of the work shows up a lot throughout the writing. the question that remains (William pointed out something similar at the end of our last rehearsal in Essen) is if the choreography will manage to transpire that fragility. if it will really communicate the resonance that this subject and process of work have in me, as I’ve been writing many times.
