FREETONG PLAYERS (Imported from a prior blog)

MY Birthday is Their Birthday

The fabulous Freetong Players, one of the most innovative, original and creative group of artists I know (and I know quite a few) celebrate 21 years since their founding, on May 20th of this year, which also happens to be my $%$#th birthday. I am exactly 3 weeks younger than Independence for those who want to work it out.

The Players will be celebrating in a myriad of creative ways in Salone, and I'll bring news of that here as I receive it. On the DadaMan Walking Blog I'd like to celebrate by showing photographs of the group and it's members at work in Salone, the UK and the USA with some text on how I met them, why I love them, and a few shared experiences.

Many of you privvy to this blog have known Freetong Players longer than I have, and it would be wonderful if you were to contribute too. So again, add a note or message to this blog or email me at salonedada@yahoo.com and let us give praise where praise is due. I have asked founder Charlie Haffner to give us some background on the founding and will of course post anything he sends in.

I feel this blog is starting to find it's feet, but am sure it will only be truly up and running when your voice is added too.
