We can’t remember if we mentioned this before, but please check out an article that Bricoteer Jamie wrote for Unima/usa about “Riding the Wave, Enduring the Trough” in Canadian puppetry: http://www.unima-usa.org/pi-42-selection-2.

Happy World Theatre Day, friends o’ the Bricoteers! Sorry that we have been so very quiet recently!

Happy World Theatre Day! David and Tamara share their thoughts on Theatre and Standing on the Threshold of Change: "Theatre is worthy of our praise because of its ability to bring us into this relational/liminal space that connects us in place and time, always standing on the threshold of change together... As artists, let us not shirk, or shy away from it. Let us not be afraid of the real world as it bores its hard eyes into us. Let us not be fearful of excessive magic, or metaphors and mockery and laughter and contemplation. Let us not be afraid of suddenly invoking another world, another way. Let us not be afraid of sending the enemies of art withering into the purgatory of memory. Let us remember that in the theatre we always stand on the threshold of change, and as theatre makers we are guardians of that precious, liquid space, for all the seekers who have been and who will always, always come."
