Did anyone see these folks near the Division Street exit this morning? They were doing what they call ‘Exit Ramp Theater’ and today’s selection was Hamlet. When I saw them, they were just holding the signs, there wasn’t any acting going on. I stopped to talk to them but wasn’t able to get much info before the light turned green. Here’s what I know:
– They’re a loose knit group of four local actors (not affiliated with any theater).
– They’re doing a different act of Hamlet every day this week.
– They’re not trying to make any money, just have fun.
Anyone have any more info?
So… I wonder if they really act or just do the, "real life mannequin," thing. If they are doing the mannequin thing, I personally challenge anyone to try as hard as they can to distract the mannequin's gaze….
It's a fun thing old people used to do downtown at Macy's and Nordstrom's before Facebook existed.
I mean old people, such as myself. We entertained ourselves with activities like this before the internet was invented (or main stream, at least.)
