All I have to say is that 'process is over' and the absence of process bites me in the butt. Today we did a run for Sarah, lighting designer, and Betsy, sound designer, and a few other people , Brian, Marieke, Bob, Scott's friend Michael - all there in support of the play. However, the cliche occurs. The actors push for product. Every beat of the play is displayed and craft is articulated and demonstrated. Just not experienced. And experience is where the play lives... in the ability to experience the play fully each time. As an actor... I can't do it. That's why I direct. Jamie and Eric T. have done it, have experienced it fully. The art of the actor, and what I see at LAByrinth all the time, is the courage to experience something fully each time... to bring yourself fully to the experience. When that happens the play soars.
I love this play because it makes me want to experience being in love. All that is joyful, tingling, and terrifying about risking what it is to be in love, to love, and possibly to be rejected. And willing to do that everyday, honestly, is the process of this play.
And for that - I never want to let go of process.
Goodnight,

Hi Padraic...
Look forward to the blogs and experiencing the process from a distance. We are looking forward to seeing the production at it's fullest.
It is exciting to hear about the process in detail; the lighting, the sound and all the props... coming together to make it what it should be.
Enjoyed seeing the pics at Lithia Springs. In the 50s, we would drive down to the springs in Driver's Ed... to catch the kids skipping school. Was not a public park then. The pics brought back nice memories and heightened expectations of seeing Sweet Storm at it's best! Good Wishes for success to all... Jewdee
