The Boards - Tuesday, 6/09 - REHEARSAL
"All right, all of you" dear God there's a lot of them "today, we start rehearsals. We do rehearsals in two-act chunks. If you're not in the acts we're doing, you don't have to be here."
Though his glare said quite clearly that if you weren't he would be disappointed and not only that.
"I haven't set the play yet," he admitted to the assembled, "but that's my job. And no matter what I do with the production, your job is to know who you are and who you're playing. If the only time you touch the playscript is in here, you're doing it wrong. Feel free to use the scripts as you work, but it shouldn't get in the way of your acting.
"If anyone needs help with their part, or just wants to talk to me, you know where to find me. I live here. Literally." He pointed to what was very obviously a storage closet. "Right there. Don't say you didn't know."
He breathed in, then out before finally pulling a smile on.
"All right, then. Let's get to it, everyone."
