Daddy Long Legs Rehearsal Report: From Sandy Meisner to a sandy beach

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about an old Meisner lesson…he has a number of beginning students listen to the traffic outside and count how many cars go by. This gives the students a specific activity that emphasizes how we take in information aurally, which tends to be taken for granted more than how we take in visual information. I love the emphasis Meisner puts on using all the information your senses take in order to stay in the moment.

Daddy Long Legs: Influences on the Playwright

In general, books and films are my biggest sources of inspiration when I know it’s coming time to put pen to paper – the latter for plot and character, the former for atmosphere and dialogue. For me, these are the four cornerstones of a performance text, the four elements which I can and should control. For Daddy Long Legs, BOTC had decided we wanted to do a new story outdoors – no set, no lights, no tech to speak of, really. Control was already at a high premium.
