Email Fragments

My friend J. wrote after seeing my performance by children project with Victoria, That Night Follows Day in Paris last week:

“At the applause my neighbour, a young woman in her mid-twenties, pointing out one kid to her friend:  “I want the same as this one”.
In the metro going back home (22h30) 2kids in front of me 8 and 12 maybe, couldn’t stop staring at them, trying to see into their brain, they were so quiet and I was imagining storm inside.”

Something about time and money featuring in a place where it doesn’t normally occur.

There is a church nearby where tourists can pay a euro to ring the bells- and every half an hour three blind mice play badly across the town.”
