Last night, Flux had our first rehearsal for our upcoming production of Jacob’s House. First rehearsals often seem to go one of three ways: The first rehearsal is treated as the thing you need to get through before real rehearsals begin: the creative team is guarded and cautious, and the actors throw the read through…
In honor of our upcoming production of Jacob’s House, a riff on the story of Jacob wrestling the Angel, I offer you this Thursday afternoon cartoon from Married to the Sea, (h/t Daniel John Kelley @funwithiago), artist currently unknown.
You may have noticed our humble little blog is going through some changes.

Hi all! Isaiah here. Heather and I are curating “Divine Reckonings“, this year’s ForePlay. The first one is on Monday. I’m in it. Afterwards, there’s a party with an open bar. You should come to one of these fun events; better yet, come to both! But I’m actually writing tonight for a more general purpose….
In February, I posted about about the dimensions of character in an oh-so-accessible post entitled A String Theory of Character. Simply put, that post explored the idea that richness of character is determined by the directions in which the meaning of a single action can resonate. When a one-dimensional character acts, the meaning of that…
