radiant ghosts

When I first taught acting in January '99, I hired three Robyn-Hunt-trained guest artists to demonstrate Suzuki slowtens -- Naho Shioya, Michael Perrone, and an actress friend of theirs. From then on, I used students from earlier classes as guest artists for later ones.

At the Odin I used myself, also trained by Robyn Hunt. This year I fell off; no slowtens in Improv, and few in Noir, as several of the actors had foot issues.

I'm bringing guest artists for this class. A treat for me. The students don't realize the transmission they're getting.

Oh man -- I should see how many guest artists I could get. Have everyone I've trained up there, a horde of radiant ghosts.

Holly, Rick, Matt, Lexi, Birgit, Shane, Jessica, Maggie, Derek, Ben, Gwen, Jenni, Jeff, Ian, Malia, Brett, Shea, Brian, Kris, Kristine, Dean, Radmila, Scott, Scott Johnson, Mike, Dave, Tony, Jyothi, Sandra, Jody, Jones, Justin, Alexei, Anya, Ed, Christina, Ashley, Kerry, Mimi, Paul, those three gorgeous Chorus women from Italy, Mexico, & South Africa, Heather, Lois, Chris, Flicka, Brad, Jeffrey, Peter, Vincent, Lucy, Ashok, Colleen, Alok, Amy, Yaniv, Greg, Vincent & Jennifer, Yvette, Christie, Sal, Pam, Denise, Erica, PJ, Cas, Angelica, Jeff, Sandra, Lyon, Marina, Mary, Keith, Lara.

Let the 5 new actors see the previous 450.

Robyn would have thousands.

Keep your pelvis moving
Slow down at the interaction
Don't think, don't think, don't think
Turn the whole world with your spine
Move like a drowned statue
We perform for the eye of god
