Very good. <p>DeJong writes to Gary Wilkie of Contexts in Seattle to ask if she could present her new work there as part of a tour that will take her to Portland Oregon. She encloses a photo and resume: "It's not very up to date in terms of the new work I'd be presenting or the recently completed book and opera I wrote with Philip Glass." A publicity sheet from Art Performances New York states: "Constance DeJong is one of the young post-modern writers who has made performance a natural extension of her work as a writer. By blending some of the traditional techniques of theatre - lighting movement music - performances extend her work beyond the written word into an almost tactile presence a context where the narrative can come to life.
