Rehearsal today was a blast.

We blocked the scene where Black Dog (KELLIE WARTH) shows up at the Admiral Benbow Inn and gets in a fight with Billy Bones (ALLISON TURZA).

I'm not a big fan of blocking...the working out of where actors go on the stage. I like working rehearsals, polishing rehearsals, even technical rehearsals more. But this afternoon/evening it was fun--especially working out the knife fight with Kellie and Allison.

Both women understand the big idea...believe. If our entire cast believes that these things are really happening, this play is really going to be good.

And tonight, it was.
