Flexible identities, ‘bad’ reviews, and behind the scenes at a Plopera™️

We giggle at the bad reviews we’ve gotten over the years and read some of the haunting reviews you all sent us on insta. Then we start to flesh out a theory about fluctuating and flexible identity, both in rehearsal and in life. It’s so deliciously easy to form our self-understanding around a stiff and rigid self-concept… what changes when we soften our idea of ourselves? 

THEN, in a new segment called TTA Hits the Streets, We TRAVEL to a real LIVE rehearsal of ‘the smallest sound in the smallest space’, a piece by Bryce McClendon, produced by The Why Collective, and premiering at The Cell Theater TONIGHT omg!!! Lovingly referred to as a “plopera” (play + opera), we ran around one of their dress rehearsals, interviewing the cast, crew, and production team. We truly had a blast!!

Behind the scenes at the Plopera starts at 49:01!
