Or "what happened to my blogging?"
Well, gentle readers, I've been seduced by the sunshine here in florida and I apologize. I will do my darndest as we head into to tech to catch you up on what's going on here at asolo.
I've three more rehearsals left - and michael edwards came to a runthru on saturday. I've been implementing many of his notes. As you may recall, I assisted michael way back when - during the drama league fellowship. I put in AMADEUS for him down at norfolk's virginia stage and that remains a lovely memory and great experience.
Michael has a great way of telling story: both connecting the actors to the tech as well as depicting the visual elements to tell the story. So - in short - I trust the guy.
I'd say his main critique was making sure one of the actors played the reality of the circumstances and wasn't commenting. Its something I'd been working on, so it was good to hear confirmation that I was on the right track. also I think having the artistic director give me notes was a nice jolt for the actors. They trust michael too and I am sure they have a good sense of where his notes were coming from
Its clear to me that the last quarter of the play needs work. It seems, under rehearsed. The transitions are vague.
Three rehearsals left. Andromache arrives monday.
