A 'Moving' Day (Oct 17/06)

We've begun a physical theatre (primarily mime and pantomime) club/team at the K-9 school where I work. Trying to think of a suitable and creative name, I thought of the famous quote by Jacques Lecoq, "Tout bouge" ("Everything moves"). 'Bouge' ('move') - now that's a short, workable name (that even young students can say) with somewhat of a mystery, and yet a broad enough meaning for a physical theatre troupe. With our school division having a large French population, it's also suitable in that sense.
