Findings.<\/strong> Editor: \u00a0Anjum Katyal<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I suppose it began with hunger. \r\nStraitjacketed into a narrow seat in the dark well of a hall which turns the familiar proscenium face of the all-too-well-known beloved towards me, one waits, again, for the leap of surprise, for the gasp of wonder, for the sigh of satisfaction, for the magic that grabs and shakes one alive, out of the dulling rote of the everyday. Or seduces one into a journey, far from the route of the everyday.\r\n\r\nAnd one leaves unsatisfied. The hunger gnaws. Somewhere just outside the <\/span>field ofvision, somewhere just beyond the groping imagination, somewhere in <\/span>the depths of things read\/seen\/felt\/touched lies an answer. But not here. <\/span>No, not here. \r\n\r\nSo. \r\n\r\n\u2018My eyes . . . return to seeing what I remember\u2019 . . .<\/span>(Ralph Lemon). \r\n\r\nAnd the seed of this issue is sown. Magic of memory. The image.<\/span> The idea. What is dramatic. What becomes theatrical, what even becomes theatre. <\/span>Where we look, what we mine, where we root and dig and\r\nwhat we find. Above all,<\/span> what we find. \r\n\r\nWhy this, not that? Sometimes the sheer rhythm, the timing, <\/span>the silence, the words not spoken. Sometimes the light and the way it moves or makes us remember the possibilities<\/span> of the way it moves. \r\nSometimes the knockout breathgasping visual. Sometimes a<\/span> soft nudge, sporing memories and images.\r\nAnd always, the knowledge that this is<\/span> not all. There is always more. Down that road, on that shelf, in that corner, outside<\/span> that window. Always one more nugget of magical creativity to break and make <\/span>one anew.\r\n\r\nFinding(s). \r\nBoth the noun and the verb. \r\nBoth the journey and the stops along the way.\r\nIs what this issue is about.<\/span><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
