The theater is a holy space, and is as holy for me as anything has ever felt. Theater is my religion, not my spirit. The ceremony, the ritual, the sacred space...
We had load-in today for Rabbit Hole and I was sent onto the Mainstage to get some ties for the lighting cables because we had run out... I saw the set for Doubt from the wings and I got chills up and down my body. It felt such an energy from the place... I love theaters. I love being in them alone, especially. And I was there, just absorbing it all around me. I knew I was the only one in there, but I snuck around like the Theater Gods were sleeping and I was to respect their moments of peace. I felt warm, though.
This is the place I want to return to over and over and over again, this space, these feelings, I want to live them again and again and live this life, despite what you say. I want to completely let myself go in this place, in front of these nameless people.

I want to act. And there is nothing you can ever do to stop me.

I have a will, and I will NOT be bent anymore, I will not break. I have a resolve, and I have a goal, goddamnit. Indomitable.
