SPAhhhmateur

Director Sarah Hughes and I collaborated on the seeds of a new immersive play(?) pageant(?) group appointment(?) about urban intimacy, public hygiene, and the real-time creation of a mutualistic amateur spa.

When was the last time somebody bleached your mustache as you rubbed their feet? Can you let a friend tend to your cuticles or do you need to pay a professional to feel in good hands? The sweepings feed the Talapia out back which in turn feed us.

We shared a snippit of this work in progress at the New Gorges Jamboree at Dixon Place in May, 2019.
