Photos from the RaumD

Hi Folks,

I'm still sick, so slacking on the blog thing. I have tons of video footage of the other night plus photos, but it's not happening at the moment.

Henry and Caitlyn, however shared a few of their own so here ya go!

So they're in the wrong order, but:

Caitlyn and I post-show - we made our makeup match our snowsuits in case anyone notices...


















C & I during Pet My Monkey

















C - Pet My Monkey. Also, Sean and Dorsey are hiding over there behind the table...Oh, and yes, C. wore pointe shoes and they were lovely! After rehearsal I joked that I was like the modern dance monkey for the ballerina :) For those of you who have seen Men in Black (will smith).. during the performance I was visualizing that crazy awful alien that has cockroaches come out of him... haha... we'll see if that makes sense after I've edited and uploaded more excerpts :D


















Pre-show. Henry and Sean... I think Sean was practicing one of his pieces with Henry

Post final Wien show

We had tons of fun and I think it was quite successful. Caitlyn and I had an Italian fashion designer tell us afterward that he was so inspired by our dancing that he wanted to design costumes for us... that's super cool.

Sean's Devil and Angel was a trip to put it mildly. The devil promised things like universal health care, social security, etc... and beer, only remembering at the last moment that Sean's an American and may want water instead (if you'll remember I posted earlier that we're mocked because we drink water)... .and then finally the devil and angel both die from eating too much sausage, cheese and buttery potatoes. There were a LOT of Americans in the crowd, so I think he was playing to them rather than to the Austrians, as the whole Devil and Angel is an improvised computer puppet show (you'll see once I post it). Video Action went over well and someone even wanted to eat the Frankfurter after Sean finished "feeding" it to his animation! That was a first! I was cleaning it off the stage area and someone yelled "Wait! I'll eat it!" Dorsey created two interesting sound pieces for both of the dances which was really a treat... anyway, there will be plenty of videos and photos to come but i'm sick and cannot stand being on the computer today.

Oh, and finally, Sean's new piece was unveiled and received well - we all look forward to it one day soon being completed :)
