We're working away on "I'm So Close..." as we gear up for Summerworks. It will be interesting to explore this first draft in the context of this festival and in relation to an audience. We're very excited and there are still a million and one things to do. We've been constantly cracking away at--what is this story? Who are these people...? It seems like there is still so much more to explore and so so so much further to go, but at this stage we've etched out what will be the first incarnation and are really excited to have such a long process ahead of ourselves to flesh out, discard and find new things. It has been interesting for us to play with projections, which we all have bigger ideas about for the future... we can see why people say that projections have the potential to eat away your tech and drive you slightly mad. We've already spent a lot of time on them, as it is. But there is something to using them that has been very exciting, as we move into a new territory for ourselves and company. This next week looks to be a bit insane, in the best of ways.

Has been great to have the support of The Theatre Centre through all of this. Hope all is well with you all on the other coast, looking forward to seeing some of you at Summerworks. How are things going for you Choppers?
