Brick by dreadful brick

Thinking Poppy-theatre these days, I was glad to tumble over this -  fun for fans of the dreadful, and who isn’t, these days?  You can check them out here as well.  (Also dig the puppet bees here.)

Reading Rimbaud has also put me much in mind of translation.  Reimagining, remaking a story from one medium to another is an act of translation as well. Although your actors may be slightly less elastic … Then again, that’s why we have puppets.

Oddly, the topic of transformation from one medium to another has been on my mind of late as well! :)

“Oddly,” indeed. But you’re an old hand at making X = X. :)
