My thoughts:<\/p>\n
Some things seemed rushed and some things seemed too long. I also felt really awkward about having nothing to do for a lot of the time; it was like there was this gap between the audience and us because we were in the space but not necessarily participating in the newness . For example, during the beginning when everyone was masked, a lot of us were laughing and becoming spectators. Because we were so interested in audience reactions, we were both the performers and the audience to them.<\/p>\n
A lot of my thoughts now are more centered around wondering where we go from here. I\u2019m excited to clean things up and discover what we are trying to say. I also think we could take more ownership of the space and make the whole thing a complete place rather than having table-to-table experiences.<\/p>\n

My friend\u2019s thoughts:<\/p>\n
Just to preface, I don\u2019t think these reactions are necessarily bad or good, I\u2019m just trying to record what they said. Although both of my friends really liked the opening, one preferred things they could explore on their own time while the other preferred group experiences where they were explicitly led somewhere. They both seemed a little hung up on trying to figure out what the \u201ctheme\u201d was or what we were trying to say, to the point of frustration. Our (the class) presence also really confused them because they didn\u2019t know if we were acting or not while we were just walking around the crowd, like it was unclear what was a performance and what wasn\u2019t. On that note, there was disappointment about not seeing things because they didn\u2019t know what was happening.<\/p>\n
