I saw a great play tonight -- Craig Lucas's The Singing Forest, directed by Bart Sher at the Intiman. A breakthrough for writer and director. A little slow off the start, but worth the wait for when it picks up.
It's wild I would see this play on the night of the blue moon.
"What was I THINKING, that I could leave theatre for 2 years to get an MBA?" was my first reaction. This felt like world-theatre, like you'd see in Krakow or Moscow. Like oxygen. My second thought was to consider more seriously a playwriting MFA.
Bart invited me for a sesh next week, and said I can observe his Our Town rehearsals.
Life. I want more of it. I want to stay in theatre forever. Tonight was a sharp reminder of WHY it's worth all this work to set up a sustainable life for myself in the theatre.
Under all this -- I'm restless because I'm not rehearsing. Normally I rehearse year-round, but I'm taking the summer off. When I'm rehearsing, I'm at peace.
