As we come to an end! I would like to give a huge shout out to this entire class. It has been a joy seeing yal twice a week and working with you! As Tuse and I wrapped up last weekend (I forgot to blog... shhh don’t tell Rebecca) I remember we took a moment right before we started our rehearsal of silence just appreciated our characters Sharon and Mary. We spent a lot of time in our last rehearsals really thinking about the different layers of our characters really making sure we added in the complexity, the drama and sass both Sharon and Mary bring to the table. This task was a bit difficult at first but the more we rehearsed the easier it became to image how just who Sharon and Mary are as people. Tuse and I really worked hard to embody these women and I hope that shows in a few hours. In our final rehearsal we felt like sitting at the picnic table was not creating that strong connection we were looking for so we changed it to sitting on the floor with the table behind us. In this progress we learned to truth our gut and do what feels right while thinking about what Mary and Sharon would do.
