Abstract
The piece which follows explores a particular project. Split Britches' residency at Hampshire College,from three vantage points. In the first section, Rhonda Blair,faculty member in the Hampshire Theater Program, and author of the grant which funded the Company's extended residency at Hampshire, discusses her experience of working with her students and the Company on The Alcestis Project. The second section is an edited interview with Lois Weaver, Peggy Shaw and Deb Margolin and myself in which the members of Split Britches reflect on their experience of the residency and discuss their process of working with the students. The final section is the text of a culminating performance, Deb invited commencement address to the students of Hampshire at the end of the academic year in which the residency took place (19891990). As this issue of Women and Performance goes to press, Split Britches is off to do another residency at the University of Hawaii. —Lisa Merrill
