“If I think back to every rehearsal process for every play I've ever worked on, there's just so much crying at home. I barely sleep. There are moments of deep despair and anxiety, and then there are moments in rehearsal that are the most exhilarating; feeling seen and seeing everybody. Feeling like you have a purpose on the planet. A huge part of the process I enjoy is watching the actors figuring out what they can handle and what they can take and what they need from the director and me.” IfsThinkingNeedsPlayMomentsFeelingsHomePurposeActorsProcessEnjoySleepSeeingCryPlanetsHugeLike YouDirectorsDespairAnxietyHandleRehearsalExhilaratingExhilarating Feeling Author:Annie Baker
