Hot muggy and disgusting. Sound familiar? Gotta say though, yesterday was just fine. Got in around noon. Got home around 2. Rachel got in around 430. We were pretty jet lagged the whole day. Didn't at all know what to do. Drank a lot of water. Riveted? I am sure.
So today I am off to vermont to direct MASTER HAROLD...AND THE BOYS. As always, I do wonder how underprepared I am. Do directors ever feel over prepared? I doubt it. I've refamiliarized myself with some south african history and the laws of apartheid. And I've read the script several times and marked it up. I feel it is a "straightforward" play so I always wonder how to bring myself to it, to add my take on it. And yet, I still adhere to that idea of being a director who gets out of the way of a piece.
Looking forward to working with guiesseppe - my old act classmate. And wendell - who I directed up at penn state in 05. Nice times. And of course with the new guy, Clifton Guterman, playing my namesake, hally.
Weston will be beautiful. Let's hope the weather holds up its end of the bargain.
