A song, hrmn? I'm curious, perhaps I'll ask you later - but until that time comes, thank you so much for reading! I guess this means you've survived the curse of the Folio - if there even was a curse to begin with, and not these brave men and women of science - no monster, but their own creation... ;P

Honestly, I've got more Troma in me then Arthouse, but I'm deeply inspired by a lot of Euro movies that get the lable 'arthouse' in the States, but are considered fairly accessible elsewhere; that and fairytales, my perennial inspiration. The Oldest Friend is... Well, who knows? I suppose you could choose to see that character many ways, and what with the content of the play incomplete, or incompletely shown, much is left unsaid.

I was inspired by a lot of things, but mostly something I've always found kind of interesting. The Rite of Spring actually inspired riots, or near riots in it's first performance (and I had thought several others, actually causing a drop in attendance for poor Stravinskii!). I wanted the 'non-supernatural' thema of the play to have been designed to cause extreme discomfort and anxiety in audiences by order of weirdness alone; then the possible supernatural weirdness becomes a layer on top of that, of sorts.

Your questions, as subtle as I have the unfortunate curse of being, may soon be answered, though I make no promises that they won't end up leading to more questions. I'm actually planning to re-organize my stories, and link some in a sort of 'spiritual' anthology, with perhaps more ties then just themes. More on that later, however - I must thank you immeasurably for your kind words and your dedication! When the next Grand Guignol opens, I guarantee you a spot in the front row seats! Grab your favorite tool, your favorite snack, your favorite sacrifice - and I shall do my best to entertain. ;)
