For all you faithful readers, if any of you are still left, I apologize for my lengthy hiatus. A lot has been going on in my life, all of which is good, so there’s no need to worry. I haven’t posted since September, but it feels like a few weeks, tops. Some big things have happened, most notably the CSP Women’s Volleyball team winning the National Championship. Let me tell you the story of that…
For the past two months, I’ve been leaping inside the mind and body of Leslie the Lizard from Edward Albee’s “Seascape.”
This production is completely run by students. Tara did all the set construction. Greta did the lighting design. Jo did the brilliant costumes. Colby got the sound. Bri and Alex shouted out our lines when we screw them up (which manages to happen ALL the time, but that’s how live theatre goes). Rebekah managed to hone in on what’s going on and why the characters are saying what they’re saying. I’m astounded by this process. And for three nights, at about 100 minutes each time, all of those elements swirl together for the story. (more…)
