2. Come one, come all, to one or all.
Hi Gretchen,
The residency sounds great! I’d like to invite my first-year English composition students to attend some of the events and/or workshops. Is it okay for them to pick and choose the sessions, or would they be required to do the residency from beginning to end?

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your interest! Absolutely they may pick and choose events from classes and workshops and especially encourage the Friday noon performance on the PAC main stage. If they want to be involved with performing, they need to attend all rehearsals.
Attached is a copy of the schedule. If your class meets during one of the times, you could come as a group. Just let me know.
Thanks,

3. What’s in the heart of the beast?
Here’s a past project HOBT did, called “Invigorate the Common Well.” This will give you a hint of the creative community mission of In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre.
But wait, there’s more! Here’s a news report about that invigorating project, from an organization called On the Commons. Their website also has some good info on water that may fit nicely with class projects related to The Blue Death.
