Act 2

As I'd hoped, running Act 2 went as smoothly as Act 1. We were able to get through the entire act in one night. Jimmy has excellent instincts, and more often than not, I just write down whatever he does. Once in a while I'll give him different blocking, and each time I do, he forgets it the next time he goes through it (but remembers his "instinctive" blocking to the word!).

I was concerned with the staging. About 1/3 into Act 2, the Woman moves from the sofa to a chair by the window. Since we're doing the show on a postage stamp, I was afraid that the sofa would be upstaging the action. Luckily, since the window are will be on a 6" platform, the sight lines were just fine. Of course, once we get a sofa there it may be different.

Amanda seems to have sprained her foot. Bad for her, but it's not hurting us much as she spends most of the play sitting anyway.

I took some photos for the flyer. It'll be simple but effective. I hope to have flyers moving within a week or so.

I'm very happy with how fast this is coming together. The next step is to work on intent, but aside for line memorization, this could be a very good show. If only we could get interest beyond the area ...
