Rehearsal night 2! We still aren't in the theater so I had them do Meisner-inspired repetition exercises both in- and out- of character with some character discussion thrown in. I admit, it felt a little silly, but they seemed to respond really well to it. We had some really great character moments. Last night's initial read-thru was amazing. I took 10 pages of notes.
Nothing awful from the ex today. I hope - but do not expect - it stays that way.
