Pre-Snow Pre-Show
Saturday morning and New York is standing in the way of an impending snow storm. The final three shows are here. Everything is getting faster and more sentimental. Last night after the show (we had some obnoxious laughers in the house), I went down to Boyd’s dressing room and met Jay O. Sanders and Curtis Shumaker. We shared some scotch and talked about how the actors have grown through performance. This show seems to me to have grown quite a bit. Actors find new moments, clean up the humor, and tighten up speeches. Sometimes to our detriment. Though the show moves fast to me, I think we’ve added on time a few minutes to the running time.
A little Six-Degrees for you, last night I shook hands with Dylan Baker after the show. He was in the show phib Katya Campbell worked on; Mauritius. Also Mamie Gummer came to the show, as she is friends with Claire from their working on Evening together. Mamie is the daughter of Meryl Streep whom you might know from Carman’s recent blog entry. :)
