Went to a production meeting for an (amdram) production of Measure For Measure that I am codirecting next year. I've been asked to focus on physicality, and so am re-reading The Paper Boat by Eugenio Barba. I'm not a natural at physicality but there's something about the way he evokes it that makes so much sense to me. And yet doesn't feel like many theatre people I know have heard of him or Odin Teatret.
