works in progress

At In the Soil Arts Festival, process is everything

“There’s an electricity in the air when presenting work in progress,” says theatre artist Karen Hines. “There are thrills and spills. It’s exhilarating seeing things that aren’t finished yet. You don’t know where it’s gonna go, but that’s not even the point of the evening. The point of the exercise is theatre, and there’s nothing more alive than something that will never happen exactly that way again.”
