Intermission
a creative coffee break from writing the play

We invite you to join us for a series of monthly One-Minute Creative Coffee Breaks during 2009. “We” are a band of playwright friends.

We call our one-minute coffee break a Meditation. We see this as a mindful moment focusing collective consciousness; not religious yet perhaps spiritual.

an experiment during which we focus our highest thought upon Art and Entertainment

We do not have answers about how to bring your work to the stage, or bring to life whatever creative form floats your boat.

We believe our work, whether it’s called entertainment, distraction, art, or social/political challenge, is as necessary as bread on the table.

We call our Meditation an experiment during which we traveling troubadours, jesters, groundlings, housekeepers, actors and scribes focus our highest thought upon Art and Entertainment. We call this Meditation a time for a concentrated thought on the place of the Artist and Entertainer in our society.

Just for a minute. Once a month.

We know at the very least our Meditations will personally entertain and uplift our band of friends, helping to carry on our creativity, our creative work, and our creative challenges. We hope that experience will be true for you, too.

And remember, we’re Dramatists. We’re not calling for a minute of silence.

Whether you define yourself as a writer, an artist, or an entertainer all are welcome to participate. You are in fact invited.
