I've been following Chicken John's San Francisco Mayoral Race since it began. As soon as I found out he was running, I immediately went to paypal and sent a chunk of virtual dollars. I don't live in San Francisco and I can't vote in the election, but I wanted to show my support to Chicken John, who I have known (not well) for almost a decade - or maybe already a decade. I wish I lived in SF right now to participate in the experiment, but I watch from afar and throw my thoughts and money into the support.
This morning I was reading the latest on the campaign and the end is really what it is all about.
In the end, it’s the possibility that “anything can happen”. That’s what theatre is all about. That’s why you go to a live show. You wanna be there for the magic of possibility graduating into a confluence of now. And that’s why improv is even better. Because without a script, the “anything can happen” part becomes a bonus multiplier.
Things are about to get interesting…
What he describes is what I live on. The magic of possibility. Of snatching an idea out of the air and making it happen. It's been gorgeous to watch this happen from afar.
