Episode Description
Hey it's Eva, and it's my third thought.
On the weekend I got to see the Imagine Van Gogh Exhibit in Montreal which was super cool and it got me thinking a lot about how we love to attach narratives to an artist's work. It's really delicious, it's really satisfying to imagine... and craft these stories around why people created what they created. And I think about it in terms of modern playwriting and directing and how we really want to define a person by their work, or like a solo piece of work. And that feels really... it feels like a lot of responsibility. And maybe that comes from scarcity mentality, that we feel like we only get one shot at something, but it doesn't feel like it reflects the ephemeral nature of theatre, or the ephemeral nature of being a human being.
