AAAAAAH! Run-through today for the MTC creative staff. Always a little scary when other people start to show up in the rehearsal hall, that safe little space that we’ve created. They’re all great, none of them are strangers to me, but I always have to remind myself that they’re not a regular audience. They’re not coming to the run-through to have a good time. They’re there to work, so they’re responses might seem a little muted to us at times. It like my dad always says about Hollywood studio execs. When they hear a joke that they really like, they don’t laugh. They get very serious and say “That’s funny.”

I saw Mr. Arkin in Moonlight and Magnolias last season and look forward to seeing him again.
