Shakespeare Rehearsal
Feb. 23rd, 2003 10:54 pmAnother thing about Fool for Love--the director pointed out in his foreward, that it was about the search for family. Hmm.
Had another rehearsal for my Shakespeare showcase today. Went very well. Most of our actressses are strong but the one playing Juliet is weak, I must say. Her technique is pretty bad and she seems a little mechanical. Maybe she'll improve once she gets comfortable with the material.
I felt very good about my Rosalind and Miranda stuff. Kind of intimidated by Ophelia's mad scene, so I didn't do it today. I rented Zeffirelli's Hamlet tonight so I can study Helena Bonham-Carter's performance.

There's a diva fairie queene in me somewhere, just waiting to make an entrance.
