Arthur asked me to help him out as a lump of clay in the director's workshop he's taking at DMTC. Thus, last night, I found myself (playing Nathan) working with Maria Ramirez (playing Adelaide) in a scene from "Guys and Dolls," and also playing Cliff, opposite Clare Lawrence playing Sally Bowles, in a scene from "Cabaret."
I was a little more familiar with the "Guys and Dolls" scene, and it relied on comedy, so it seemed easier to do. The scene from "Cabaret" was more difficult, being less-familiar, dramatic in nature, and called me to slap Clare in the face (which we may, or may not do - probably not - during the show on Saturday.
It's strange to slap pleasant people in the face, just because, and know it's not personal. Kind of creepy, actually. That's acting!
Anyway, here's the announcement:
