“All happy families resemble one another, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way “ – Tolstoy

Ah family! Has there ever been an institution more examined, extolled, vilified,celebrated or suffered through? Whether it’s the one we’re born into, the one wecreate (by partnering and/or parenting) or the ones that seem to form themselvesaround us, families have been fodder for theater since the Greeks. We seem to beendlessly fascinated watching others suffer or celebrate with their families; theyreally do form the core of our relationships with one another and with the world.

I love this Tolstoy quote, it pretty much sums up the kind of work we do at Azuka.Not necessarily unhappy families, just the ones who don’t quite fit into a standardmold. As a friend of Azuka’s recently said, our shows are about outcasts and underdogs and I think that sums us up beautifully.

We’ve talked a lot about family in rehearsal. From funny parents to annoyingcousins, as soon as someone tells a story, three more quickly follow from othersin the room. We’ve all been in the proverbial trench that is family, and we like tobrag about how we survived. Growing up with three siblings I had my fair shareof stories to tell, mostly of teasing or being teased. In fact a good deal of that be-havior persists to this day; it’s amazing how being with your family makes you instantly revert to childhood patterns and behaviors. And I’m happy to say Iwouldn’t have it any other way.

So welcome to the wonderfully whacky world of Tigers Be Still. I’m willing to guessthat no matter how quirky these characters may seem, you’ll spot a little bit ofyourself (or your sister or your cousin) in one of these characters.

For Bryan and Maureen.

– Kevin Glaccum

She thrives on constructing images thatwould otherwise be forgotten, and often, not even seen at all. With her calm, unobtrusive presence, clients find her to be a joy to work with as she captures the energy and spirit of the moment. Check out her portfolio here: www.austinart.org
