The Readthru

After waiting so long to hear the cast read The Yellow Boat outloud, it finally happened. The readthru was a reminder of why I chose to direct this play. Hearing it read out loud was awesome. Since the show is so heavy in content, I was nervous that everyone would take things too seriously but that was definitely not the case. Everyone that came to listen or read was ready and willing to give it their all. It was great to see that the cast and crew were ready to get started. The reading definitely brought some tears to a few people's eyes which means that there are plenty more to come!

Welcome!

Hello all,

I decided to start a blog to keep record of the ups and downs of The Yellow Boat rehearsal process. Since Lab Shows are meant to showcase the work of the director and the actors, I thought it would be neat to see the progress that is made on the show from start to finish. So, I welcome all to come along on the process with us!
