  We are making a new play called High Crimes and until we can get back in the room together, we are going to work with you to create a digital project called A Show of Hands. This project will launch in Fusebox 2020 Virtual Edition, and it will keep running until we feel like we have enough material to work with.

  When: April 24 – 26, 2020
  Where: In Zoom
  Session 3: Sunday April 26 – you may join us any time between 10am – 2pm
  Meeting ID: 988 5202 8261; Zoom Meeting link; password: 7833 (rude)

  WHAT WE WANT FROM YOU
  We are asking for volunteers to answer questions in private, one-on-one interviews to discuss our current anxieties about what it means to be American. These conversations will be recorded for use in High Crimes, whenever we can get everyone back together to create it. We have questions about campfires, dancing, being young, immigrating, voting republican, and getting old.

  You decide which set of questions you’d like to answer. You can join us any time during each meeting. The interviews can last anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes, depending on how much you share. You can repeat the experience and answer a different set of questions.

  HOW TO PARTICIPATE
  We are doing these interviews inside of a Zoom meeting each day, for the ease of recording and storing them.

  If you have Zoom, you can use the app. You can choose to join us with video or not. Either way, we will be visible to you. If you do not want to download Zoom, you can use your phone to dial in to the Zoom session.

  Step one: Use the zoom link and password to join the meeting. If you are dialing in, you will need the Meeting ID as well. You will wait to be admitted to the meeting by the Host. If an interviewer is not immediately available, the Host will send you to a waiting room (where we do not control the music, and we are sorry for that) until an interviewer is available, or you can come back later – it’s up to you.

  Step two: Once your interviewer is available, the Host will send you and the interviewer into a “breakout session” and you will chat.

  All interviews will be recorded. If you would like a copy of your recording, let the Host know before you begin your session.
