Coming together

Plan B: When things don't go as planned,  not that you had a Plan B in mind - but now in the moment of chaos, you better do something....


Often Politicians are stuck without a Plan B.

Take Flint, Michigan.


So I think the "narrative" for the Spring production is the Flint water crisis.
It has everything.
Sadly.
A Plan gone horribly awry.  Politicians doing quick "Plan B" patches, only make it worse.
Water water everywhere and not a drop to drink.

Umbrellas.  That useless gesture in a deluge.
Cher donates Icelandic bottled water to Flint.

Plastic bags as the material for costumes?

In addition to the big, major plastic bottle dress - what if the costumes were made from plastic bags?
Could there be a "curtain" of plastic bags?

Umbrellas!

Plan B by artist Lubaina Himid

"Magic tricks, changing light, relentless tides, crazy perspectives, optical illusions, and poetic texts, empty chairs and the 'choice' offered by two canvas paintings clarifies and confuses everything.  However I have to admit this totally expresses the point of the whole body of work.  How do you tell the difference between war and  peace? "
