Moisés Kaufman

I just got out of hearing Moisés Kaufman speak..

WOW!

He has reenergized me. Okay … I’m going to attempt not to go on and on, but I am enamored with the man. He is just amazing, he is extremely and amazingly wise, much beyond his years.

He’s a dreamer, I can tell that I know that. He stated that he finds hope in our eyes … How amazing…

I guess it’s a matter of perspective. He at one point stated that “things can be better” and now as he sees them, they are better — not all the way but somewhere near there. But then this generation, now we see things as being not very good. I guess I just have to be committed that the future can happen, and it can go very well. I’ve just gotta keep my head up and keep looking that way.

Okay.. One more thing, because I’m in the lunch room at OSU and I’m fricking hungry, so I gotta stop typing and get in line for food… Geez… He stated that theatre is at a spot in its art form where its doing the same thing it has done since the 1900s… We need, we must create and develop new forms. That means a lot of failure, and some success…

I’ve gotta figure out how to keep my head up through the failures… that is the most important thing I see as right now that I need to learn and learn better… Maybe I need to know as Micro$oft does, learn to kill my failures.
