Miriam with Allies, desolate/delight project, 2009 — Miriam with Allies, *desolate/delight project*, 2009

excerpt from Chapter Six, Practice, Red Square

When students are comfortable with these practices and with their ensemble and with using everything they already know, we start to work with Allies, objects that have so much imagination to share. Bring objects to class; props, costumes, lights, text, musical instruments. They participate with us. They become members of the ensemble.
