solidarity hug. it’s so strange going thru new things without the companion who was with you thru so many things before. i keep wondering how merlin would react to my new voice since i didn’t start t until months after he died.

the deck i’m working on (verrrrrrry slowly) uses the traditional suits in the corners of the cards, but interprets them more broadly as shapes/symbols/purpose in the central imagery. swords are all kinds of blades, so the ace is a butter knife, 2 is tonya harding’s skates…

emmet, they/them. my friend took this pic of me in my pride square dancing fit in the parking lot behind the legion, because that's how we roll in lanark county. i write plays, make a podcast with my professor buddy about theatre & theory, & i'm creating a walking tour of my hometown.
emmet is a scrawny middle-aged white person with wavy shoulder-length brown & grey hair showing under a pale green backwards ball cap with patches & buttons on it. they are wearing a buttoned sleeveless shirt with a navy blue checkered pattern which has been tie-dyed dark purple, red & black houndstooth suspenders, a navy blue & gold bandana, pleated tan pants rolled up to the knee, floral pale green socks, & red converse with rainbow laces. there is a piece of tape on their shirt with a flower shape indicating what part they are dancing.

Are you in Vancouver? If you’ve got a spare Wednesday evening next week (June 11, 6:30pm) you could join a casual reading of my play SAYLE ISLAND, NOT EXACTLY at Douglas Park with the wonderful Bramble Theatre Collective! www.brambletheatre.ca/events-shows...
Our next script read is happening on Wednesday, June 11th at 6:30pm! We will be meeting at Douglas Park (801 W 22nd Ave, Vancouver BC).  In the case of rain, we will be moving to 6088 Minoru BLVD, Richmond BC. We will post a weather update on our instagram story in the case of an indoor pivot. 

This month, we will be reading Sayle Island, not exactly by Emmet Cameron. It’s the end of summer circa 2010, & single mom Heather is trying to herd her teenage daughter Geordie (or is he her son?), her preschooler Issey (or is she in kindergarten?) & her (allegedly) adult brother Ryan to the ferry dock in time to meet her mother & her mother’s best friend who have promised (or threatened) some kind of surpise. Sayle Island, not exactly is a contemporary-ish family drama with comedic elements which takes place inside each character’s memories from different points in their lives.

Script reads are a way to get to know new plays, meet people, and stay engaged with your acting in the chillest environment! At Bramble, we hope to create ways for people to keep engaging with theatre outside of working on shows. 

Everyone is welcome - bring a device to read off of and come on out to read a script with us. Sayle Island, not exactly: A Familial Memory Rendered Queerly in Multimodal, Polymorphous, Intergenerational, & Transtemporal Perspective
by Emmet L.F. CameronRECOMMENDED BY
Aly Kantor:
“ This play doesn't waste a moment before diving into the theatrical deep end, with characters who exist at many ages at once, inhabiting bodies that reflect their inner reality, not their outer one. As a result, every interaction in this fractured memory play works on multiple layers, revealing truths about the complicated humans at the center. It's a gorgeous exploration of the way we remember (or don't remember) and how even mundane moments can have profound importance from another point of view. What role do we play in constructing the mythology of our lives, and who gets to decide? Fantastic.”

Emma Goldman-Sherman:
“ A beautiful exploration of a communal memory created with an ensemble of fully alive characters in various life-stages (multigenerational) and with great pacing and drive, a journey to an island they may never reach, a wanting, a longing that is a kind of nostalgia for an imagined future all the while the past slips behind. I am fascinated by this play and will probably keep re-reading it. ”

Merlin just got home from a sleepover at the vet. Poor guy has what’s known in the biz as « moderately fckd kidneys ». 😿 In news he’ll enjoy more, part of the protocol is getting high & eating snacks.

i don’t think anybody here is local enough to come to this (or if you are you’ll see plenty about it on other platforms as it gets closer) but i just want to share that me & my friends are making new play development happen in our small town in 2025 & i am stoked.

sometimes i worry what people might think when it becomes apparent that my gender goals all along have essentially been to become a gay little rodent. but then i remember that this fellow has done all right for himself.

lol i thought it was hilarious that this target pride collection shirt literally removed sexuality from the flag, & then i found out...the flag apparently removed sexuality from the flag several decades ago. whoops.
a pale pink t shirt with the colours of the standard rainbow prde flag spelling the words associated with each stripe: red life, orange healing, yellow sunlight, green nature, blue harmony, red spiritinfographic showing original pride flag colours says "did you know? the lgbt pride flag, designed by san francisco artist gilbert baker in 1978, was originally comprised of 8 stripes that each had a different meaning: hot pink: sexuality red: life  orange: healing yellow: sunlight green: nature turquoise: magic/art indigo: serenity/harmony violet: spirit"
