We are back!

Hi all,
Just a quick note for now....we realize that we've been a bit off the grid and unplugged, literally. The PB SPX crew has been on a cultural immersion program in Bali with Dell'Arte. The program explores the cultural aspects of Bali such as dance, shadow puppetry, mask making, vocal chanting, etc. Sounds kind of random but in the scope of the kind of theater studied and practiced here at Dell'Arte it make sense.

Anyway, we have gotten some emails from folks (Shannon, we couldn't figure out how to respond to your comment asking if the program was still a go, so we're going to do it here...) We are glad to say...yes! The Pelican Bay Speaks program is still a go! Now that we are back in the good ole' USofA, we have a clear schedule to work on nothing but PB Speaks. And with just a month to work, we're going to need every minute.

Some of you may have heard that the NPR station got cut off from the TV signal, and yes this is true, but the prison says it's not because of our project. What matters most is that we try to get it back on so the guys can hear their work performed! We'll keep everyone posted on the situation.

That's all for now...we will try to get better at updating this blog and keeping things posted here.
Take care and be well!
