 Informal photo call ( we all just happened to be wearing white!) with the cast of Children of Eden. 
These students are the seniors, for which this production serves as their Capstone experience. In addition to performing  major roles in the musical, these students also serve as designers, construction crew, box office staff, and  musical director and choreographer. They are all working so hard on the show. I know it will be a tremendous success.

Buddha's Birthday.  This week was an extended holiday weekend here in Korea. Last Thursday was Labor day. Monday was Children's Day and today, Tuesday, was Buddha's Birthday.  DSU was closed  since friday, as both yesterday and today were national holidays. The streets and temples of  Korea have been festooned with colorful lanterns for weeks in honor of today.  The weather was a perfect 72 degrees and sunny. After the terrible tragedy of the ferry disaster several weeks ago, it was obvious the Korean people needed a day of peace and celebration to  pay tribute to those who have passed and  honor   the spiritual leader of so many  people.

 The MAC theatre festival has been in full swing. Last week I saw L'Ouli des Anges, a dance drama presented by Au Theatre Laboratoire of Switzerland.  This afternoon I attended a multimedia fantasy L'Oiseau Bleu
 ( the blue bird)  presented by  Collectif  Quatre Ailes , a french company. Both were terrific  and used  movement vocabularies in completely different ways.  
We are in  final rehearsal week for Hwang Sang Sin Hwa, the Korean drama I am directing.  It closes the festival  on May 11 and 12.
