PEEPING TOMS

Today we took the very nice Chimene Pollard contemporary class, and came across the ODC dancers at the end of the class. Afters big hugs, we found the Artaud Theater to rehearse. The theater is an amazing place, it used to be a factory in the early 20th century with lots of church like glass windows inside.

Peeping toms could open the eyes of our "Carte Blanche to Carte Blue".

At the end of the day we walked on Haight Ashbury, I lost Gerald but I met in the Amoeba music store Joel, the Brian Jonestown Massacre tambourin man. We shook hands, talked about our respective performances. I will perform the 20th, he will perform the 22nd.

This city is magic. Em

AUGUST 16TH THE BIG DAY

This first rehearsal day was crazy.

A modern class to warm up at the ODC Dance School, a short stop at the deli to buy fruits and nuts for power, and ready to invent the " Carte Blanche".We had to stop around 3:30 pm because DJ FARI was waiting for us at the KUSF radio station. The radio show was "FRANCO FUN". We (Corine, Gerald and I) were interviewed in French and this beautiful 'DJette' (en presque francais dans le texte) passed only french music. During the show we talked about the performances, the creative process and Gerald's music and photos, and off we met each other in a very nice way. Really good moment.

At 6 : vintage shops to find costumes, and we got it now. So lets go working.

OH THIS IS NOT SAN FRAN

After 4 hours in a plane who doesn't want to fly, and 4hours more in a lane to find another flight, we finally slept in Frankfurt and lost 24Hours. Huuuu... But we met nice people like an old student of Martha Graham Dance School and a japanese teacher who's living in Tanger.

We arrived yesterday, and the rehearsal are beginning today.

Next step a radio interview at 4pm.
