'Truth was to be achieved by a direct encounter with uncontrolled life where the camera- in a figurative sense- get out to discover genuineness of a particular human scene.' - Penne

Jane Franklin says archiving 'street theatre' is important.

"History is written from what can be found; what isn't saved is lost, sunken and rotted, eaten by the earth."

“The most Insignificant creature on Earth may be made some use of in the scale of Beings.”

  - Jane Franklin (runaway and Statesman Benjamin Franklin's closest sister).
               

 THE 2015 'STREET THEATRE' ARCHIVES

                   

             ON GRIFFIN ALLEY

An interdisciplinary 'street theatre' traveling performance and re-imagining the trial of Lena Baker, 44-year old Black American female, the first and only woman to ever be electrocuted in the state of Georgia.

Street theatre is a form of theatrical performance and presentation in outdoor spaces without a specific paying audience. These spaces can be anywhere, including shopping centre, car parks, recreational reserves and street corners. They are especially seen in outdoor spaces where there are large numbers of people. The actors who perform street theatre range from buskers to organised theatre companies or groups that want to experiment with performance spaces, or to promote their mainstream work.

Sometimes performers are commissioned, but more often street theatre performers are unpaid or gather some income through the dropping of a coin in a hat by the audience.

The logistics of doing street theatre necessitate simple costumes and props, and often there is little or no amplification of sound, with actors depending on their natural vocal snd physical ability. This issue with sound has meant that physical theatre, including dance, mime and slapstick, is a very popular genre in an outdoor setting. The performances need to be highly visible, loud and simple to follow in order to attract a crowd.

    the end.  bye.

Kim Gordon 'Girl in a Band' book memoir.

'What got me through was being onstage, the visceral release of performing. Extreme noise and dissonance can be an incredibly cleansing thing.'   - Kim Gordon, about her divorce from Thurston

Her memoir sadly opens up with her depiction of this last performance recorded above. This performance took place right after the press announcement of their marital separation and their pending divorce - and before the official break up of her band and her marriage.
