Did I forget to mention Lacuna Group?

My bad.

Lacuna Group was the name we gave to our ragtag bunch of friends (bunch of ragtag friends?) who wanted to explore devised theatre or at least theatre that wasn’t dopey showgirls in gooey gowns, turn-turn-KICK-turn.

We started back in March 2006. We pulled off the 2007 “cardboard & hot glue” performance of William Blake’s Inn in an effort to raise support for its premiere (to no avail), and in 2008 six men and one boy performed Coriolanus in a city park.

Otherwise, most of our work was in weekly workshops where we just played with theatre, creating Neo-Futurist-style scripts and improvising structures. None of it was ever performed. (I just did some TASK AVOIDANCE and read over some of the scripts; they’re still good, actually.) We’ve done nothing since 2013.

I talk about some of our work in Lichtenbergianism: procrastination as a creative strategy, where I describe Lacuna as “a theatre collaborative that springs into life whenever one of us needs a theatre collaborative,” and it finally dawned on me recently as I was fretting about what to tell people when they asked “who” was producing William Blake’s Inn that I already had a producing organization. All I had to do was update the website. Oy.

We will not get into the unbelievable stress that ensued when I decided to do that. All you need to know is that I ended up having to rebuild the entire site from the ground up. (Since the entire site was only four pages, it wasn’t as horrible as it could have been.)

So without further ado: lacunagroup.org. Check it out. Turn-turn-KICK-turn — Yes, it will WORK!
