Diane, A Shaded View on Fashion

Wallace Shawn in the New Yorker

Dear Shaded Viewers,

For those of you that do not read the New Yorker, there is a great article in the June 1st issue  on Wallace Shawn written by John Lahr. In the article he quotes Wallace Shawn from his 1990 one-man show 'The Fever' . "What do you think a human being is? Shawn asks in "The Fever". "A human being happens to be an unprotected little wriggling creature...without a shell or a hide  or even any fur, just thrown out onto the earth like an eye that's been pulled from its socket, like a shucked oyster that's trying to crawl along the ground. We need to build our own shells." London's Royal Court Theatre made this spring a Wallace Shawn season.

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Hyeres winner of two prizes, Jean Paul Lespagnard has been a very busy man. In addition to creating his own collection, the 1,2,3 collection for Hyeres, the costumes for the Yelle Americas tour, JP just sent me a few images from the theatre piece for which he did the costumes. 'All Together Now' just opened in Graz last night.
