Ramantics 08.

Circle of Life.


  • cultural integration-- Baba Yetu was an African song performed in honor of the children in Ghana. A large portion of proceeds of Ramantics was sent to the YouthAlive: Ghana project to aid underprivileged children

  • decades/generations-- not sure if this was intentional, but there definitely seemed to be a generational themes.

--Officer Krupke-- 1920s and 30s
--Radio-- 1980s
--Money Makes the World.../Sub Sub-- Victorian Era?


(This relates to the circle of life because it refers to the passing of time/ circles of history.)




Technical notes:



  • lighting on Duel of Passions-- lights should have stayed off, just showing silhouettes, no gobos, liked the dark red gel

  • griots descending from balcony-- beautiful/creative effect, should have been more graceful/ thinner ropes if possible (blocked view of stage)
