Shock and Awe

[emelye_miller]

I just found out today that The Theatre de Jeune Lune in Minneapolis is closing. They've been a major institution in my life and many of my friends who have studied there or in it's sister theater The Masque. They breathed new life into the works of Moliere, Beaumarchais, and Rostand and reinvented the arts of Commedia dell'Arte and mime. I am horrified and saddened to learn that they can no longer survive in our struggling economy.

They will be sorely missed.
