Third rehearsal was nice, I’m glad to have the whole cast together.
Patrick and Ann Sophie continue to prove wonderful chemistry, and are building the
most charming Newt and Catherine. It makes me happy. All four cast members are taking
wonderful direction from me, that is, when I give do-able directions. Today I hit
a sort of wall in terms of directing, I felt as though I wasn’t providing enough
information for them to work with, as if my directions were dry. I need to give
them more tangible directions, do-able actions, livable situations. I keep reminding
them of the same things in terms of the situation of the script, and I’m coming
to the realization that my directions need to be much more creative and sparking
to them. I need to give them more substance to build off of. I gave a direction
about magnetic force in terms of Newt and Catherine’s physical relationship, and
that was my best point of the day. More planning on my part will make for a more
productive rehearsal.
