Those who were at my last large ensemble show (Improv Derby @ Tuva  
Space 12/03/00)
may remember a piece where I subdivided the ensemble into groups that  
were cued
with cliche cards like "Bell Labs 1960", "Highway 61 1947", "2000  
BC", "Apollo
Theater, Harlem 1964", "Paris 1919", "Florence Italy 1430" and on and  
on.  I
called it Time Tunnel, and kept everyone on their toes by having each  
be in more
than one cliche group, and occasionally overlapping them.
