Day 3- 2 minutes of Gratitude--art/artists and the creative people who live it and also make it their life's work to create experiences for others. Tonight's post is late--it's technically already day 4, but I returned late from seeing "sleep no more" and my mind feels piqued but sleepy. It's not a show, it's not a play---it's an immersive experience, one that is of your own creation, limited only by physical factors such as the physical space, the actors and the other people who are also moving around. The company that put it together made five floors of rooms and scenes to explore. We were also made to wear masks and not talk during the whole experience. The performers also did not speak and they were all amazingly talented. The attention to detail was superb. For three hours you could find yourself chasing after different characters up and down five floors of rooms, or get caught in a detail, some object in a room that catches your eye and you stop and go in. You can open the drawers, read the letters, unroll the maps, look inside things. It's a lot of work to bring a vision to life. I want to thank the artists in my life for creating these types of experiences in your own ways for the rest of us. My eyelids are closing before I can tag all of the wonderful artists I know on this post. Artists, you know who you are. I send you lots of love and thanks.
