In #onyxstorm, theatre is mentioned at least 3x, and I know it's reasonable to assume life exists outside of the war, I just laughed because as a theatre person all I could picture were the Ember Island Players from Avatar The Last Airbender (pls put this in the TV show, Rebecca. Thx)

You DO know how to make the art you want to make. It is good because YOU made it, through your lens of experience and perspective and talent.

Don't doubt yourself!

I love theatre. It’s nourishing, challenging, transformative.

Why are Shakespearean plays more timeless than modern contemporary shows? Why can they can be altered over and over with totally different choices to make it new and old each time? Is it an internal force vs external force?

If you want to oppose tragedy then we must embrace comedy. So #doitforthelols or whatever

I am in a book hangover after reading The Empyrean series for the first time over the last month. I know I'll be diving into Crescent City next, but man. I may have to read these again before I do... #onyxstorm #booksky

Ok, sure, maybe hell IS empty and all its devils are here. We're all feeling like affliction is enamored of thy parts, and thou art wedded to calamity. But have we forgotten we are such stuff as dreams are made on? That our little life is rounded with a sleep?
