DRAMA IS SO CONFUSING RIGHT NOW....

I AM SO CONFUSED
It has been so good getting back to drama this week. Maria did an excellent presentation on Artaud on Friday. While we had already read a bit of Artauds writing (the First Manifesto) his ideas and the concepts of Theatre of Cruelty seemed kind of abstract and alien. Maria's presentation really helped me understand it more, she put it in a langauge which I could understand much more. And we still have tomorrow to look forward too, Maria has chosen a practical Artaud exercise for us to do. We also have to share our dreams, something I am not really looking forward too.
The artwork above corresponds to my feelings on the theatre course at the moment. I am still trying to find a better piece of art for where I think I am on the course, but this piece kind of relates to where I am this weekend.. Kind of anxious about the upcoming Artaud work and sharing my dream. Although I am very excited about learning more about Artaud I am a bit apprehensive, I think it's becuase I don't like the idea of talking or thinking about the "dark truth/reality", I don't feel any sort of release/cleansing from talking?thinking about it, instead I just feel really uncomfortable. The experience will probably be good for me.
