*Click here for more Native American symbol information.

The Hand. Representing the presence of man. His work, his achievements & his history.*

Dragonfly Forms. The graphics are an abstraction of the dragonfly, which can be used as a talisman, especially with the Southern Pueblo Indians. At Isleta it became a double armed cross. This was worn as a symbol of both Catholic conversion and respect for older traditions.*

Weaving Pattern. Navajo Storm Style. Many of the Navajo patterns are followed closely by weaving families, while other designs are created fresh each time. A few designs are similar to designs seen in Plains Beadwork and paintings.*

Mark Bennett, in New York, is going to be using MILLTONE Tunable Steel Tongue instruments, with special music he is composing for AS  YOU LIKE IT and THE TEMPEST, by William Shakespeare for THE BRIDGE PROJECT. See press release copied below for details of the project.

PRESS RELEASE
Issued August 7, 2009
Bank of America presents
THE BRIDGE PROJECT
Produced by Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), The Old Vic, and Neal Street
Productions
AS YOU LIKE IT
THE TEMPEST
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
STEPHEN DILLANE, CHRISTIAN CAMARGO, AND JULIET
RYLANCE ANNOUNCED FOR 2010 COMPANY
DIRECTED BY SAM MENDES
August 7, 2009 – Following a critically acclaimed inaugural year, theater and Academy Award-winning
film director Sam Mendes will again direct a transatlantic company of actors for the second season of
The Bridge Project, a unique three-year series of co-productions by Brooklyn Academy of Music
(BAM), The Old Vic, and Neal Street Productions devoted to producing large-scale, classical theater
for international audiences. The new cast is led by Stephen Dillane, Anne-Marie Duff, Christian
Camargo, and Juliet Rylance who will perform a double-bill pairing of Shakespeare’s The Tempest
and As You Like It. Dillane will play Prospero in The Tempest and Jaques in As You Like It, joined by
Duff as Ariel and Rosalind, with Camargo as Stephano and Orlando, and Rylance as Miranda and
Celia.
The Bridge Project again begins its international journey in New York, with As You Like It opening at
the BAM Harvey Theater in January 2010, followed by The Tempest in February 2010. It will then
embark on an international tour visiting Asia and Europe before arriving in London at The Old Vic in
the Summer.
Stephen Dillane returns to the New York stage for the first time since winning a Tony Award for his
performance in David Leveaux’s production of The Real Thing. Christian Camargo last appeared on Broadway in Simon McBurney’s popular production of Arthur Miller’s All My Sons and was acclaimed for his Hamlet earlier
this year at Theater for a New Audience. Juliet Rylance recently played Desdemona in the much
admired production of Othello at Theater for a New Audience and has also performed in productions
at Shakespeare’s Globe in London and The Chichester Festival Theatre.
Commenting on the 2010 double-bill, Sam Mendes says:
“Stephen Dillane and I began a conversation about his playing Prospero in The Tempest when I first
conceived The Bridge Project back in 2007 and I’m delighted to be finally bringing those plans to
fruition. I’m equally thrilled to be welcoming Anne-Marie Duff, one of the finest actors of her
generation, playing Rosalind in As You Like It. Complemented by Christian Camargo and Juliet
Rylance—two actors I have also followed, admired and hoped to collaborate with—it all adds to my
excitement about forming The Bridge Project’s second company, and building on the wonderful
experience of our first year.
The Bridge Project is a major commitment for actors. It unfurls across nine months with two plays
performed across major seasons in New York and London, interspersed with an international touring
schedule that takes in Asia and many of Europe’s finest cultural festivals. The current Bridge company
has been made extraordinarily welcome in the countries we’ve visited and I’m hugely looking forward
to making a second such journey.”
The full company will again be drawn from leading American and British actors, with further casting to
be announced shortly. The cast is appearing with the permission of American Equity and UK Equity.
The producers gratefully acknowledge Actors’ Equity Association and UK Equity, incorporating the
Variety Artistes’ Federation, for their assistance on this production.
