OS for theatre in Berlin

Fri Apr 16 13:26:43 PDT 2010

Phelim -- How wonderful to share and feel the success of what is
happening in the moment. Thank you for making us part of this.  Who
knows as a result of you planning and holding this space with such
heartfelt intention, the spirit may live on and we may even have
Harrison "singing and perhaps dancing in circle in Berlin in May".
His words seem to suggest some experience and hidden talent perhaps!

> Phelim -- I knew you would do it! The shape and quantity of the space is important. AND I am always amazed that in spite of everything, it works. I remember one time having a very long narrow room, so narrow in fact that peoples knees were almost touching. Space in the middle was practically non-existent. I don't have a clue how it all worked, but it did. There can be an upside to having been given rotten space. I always take it as an invitation to take the whole group in a parade in search of something better. A little singing helps too. :-)
