Er, dope sky. Or dope fly? Anyways, I still think it would be awesome to see kids acting out dialogue from the "wide ranging" talks we have here. I'd like it to be webcast though since I live in a computer :) Crazy awesome. Er, dope sky. Or dope fly?

The play itself was about commenters to the grafitti thread being suddenly transported into a room with each other - their anonymity stripped away by an omniscient 'playwright' character. I don't think that PoP could post a transcript or video of the play and get anywhere near the same response as the play did last night. It was very enjoyable, and it was nice of PoP to introduce himself to the audience during the talkback session afterwards - it was a funny, strange echo of the play, to see this online persona suddenly become a real person before your eyes.

Don't suppose there was video taken or something like that? Also, I propose the Theater maybe does plays based on more of the posts here, especially the ones that deal with the really contentious issues of gentrification, race, etc. Depending on what the Theater wants to do of course, but I think this could be a great way to build bridges and understanding and all that good stuff. I am willing to donate to such an effort if anyone thinks it would be worthwhile. However, if PoP wasn't made fun of too badly, I would request he gets more ribbing next time ;) Sorry I missed it, I must say. Don’t suppose there was video taken or something like that?
