The Othello Diaries: Week 2 Begins

We've staged the play. We know where we are going in a general sense. Now work begins working the play moment to moment. Line by line. Tedious work that combines directorial intervention with repetitions for the actors as they slowly become more comfortable with the scenes and their lines. Lines. Whooo boy, even with cuts there are lots of words, words, words.

I'm also really looking forward to the end of the week when we add music to rehearsal. It will be another large element, but one that I think will help drive both the energy of the story and the emotion. 

I've said it before. We're either on the verge of brillance or the exact opposite. So, once more into the breech we go.
