Given the difficult roller coaster that June was, I haven't had a chance to talk about how amazing and talented my cast is. They're the cast of A Nice Danish Boy in the T@F Festival, and I couldn't have asked for a better team.

This festival rehearsal period has been painful to me, because with the conflicts and burdens of summer session classes and my struggle to end the longest unemployment stretch of my life, I haven't been able to give the play the focus and attention it deserves. I've been avoiding saying that here, but there it is. The best thing I've done for this play is picking a cast of kick-ass T@F veterans who know what they're doing and who have breathed life into their hysterical characters like the big bad wolves they are. The help of my RA [livejournal.com profile] beowabbit has also been indispensable. School kept me from yet another all-cast run last night, but I'm told that [livejournal.com profile] barumonkey did a brilliant one-man version of the play, to the company's delight. I won't direct next year -- this split focus just isn't fair to any cast, but I'm eternally grateful to my talented cast and the production team for their hard work and dedication.

Several of us suggested that the festival should become a one-man show, but I think poor [livejournal.com profile] barumonkey would collapse halfway through the first act. :)

And also one non-veteran (non-T@F veteran, anyway; dunno if he’s done other theater) who has come up with some awesome stuff. You have an amazing cast. And I know you keep worrying about whether the other stuff you’ve had to deal with has left you enough time to direct, but I think you’re doing a great job. It’s supposed to be a team effort. And if you didn’t have the awesome cast you had, I’m sure you’d be putting in more work and more stress. But you have an awesome, awesome cast who are doing a great job, so yay, less stress for everybody!

P.S. I love you.
