This past weekend SOSE members set off on our annual camping retreat. It was a well-spent weekend. Other than the planned sessions over the three days (in which we looked at ourselves creatively and artistically and begun dialogue about what our next collective step is) it was great to spend 2 1/2 days with my fellow company members in a setting other than the theatre. I firmly believe that this kind of interaction can only serve to deepen our personal relationships which in turn deepen our collaborative work onstage and organizationally. Long live SOSE!
