My White Coat and Gloves

I have officially started rehearsals for Dental Society Midwinter Meeting by Laura Jacqmin and directed by Megan Shuchman.

First rehearsal was on Saturday. A quick read through and some scene work. This is my first time doing a show with such a short rehearsal process. It really is quite a different experience.

The goal was to come as "off book" as possible the first day, which I must say everyone did really well. The primary challenge will be to get everything blocked and solidified, create an outline if you will, and after that we can come back to fill each scene in with the necessary color. This is a bit of a departure from how I normally work and although it will be a challenge I am glad I am getting this opportunity. The cast and director and playwright have made this a really great experience so far.

I urge everyone to come see this show. I think it's funny and smart and wonderfully poignant.
