This session was full of energy, experimentation, and discovery as we pushed the pace of the show in new ways. After gathering and checking in, the group discussed upcoming props and long-term ideas for costumes, including possibilities for future funding and resource-building. The conversation reflected the ensemble’s continued commitment to problem-solving and making the work their own.

The session began with the group arriving gradually, settling into check-in and the ring. As we moved into reflection, much of the conversation centered on the recent Volunteer Appreciation Event. The response was overwhelmingly positive. “Did I die good?” one participant joked, sparking laughter. Others shared, “It was nice,” “It was fun,” and “All of it was impressive.” Another added, “It was pretty moving.” The group took pride in the work they presented and the impact it had.

This session brought us back into the heart of rehearsal, with a full run of Comedy of Errors and continued work on Hamlet for the Volunteer Appreciation Event. After check-in, we began a run at 6:32, with ensemble members stepping into roles and supporting one another throughout. Even with overlapping work happening in the space, the focus remained on building the world of the play and strengthening each moment.

This session shifted our focus toward imagination, authorship, and the future of the ensemble’s creative work. After gathering and checking in, many members transitioned into Volunteer Appreciation Event rehearsal, leaving a smaller group to reflect on the summer program. What followed was a rich and generative conversation about what the ensemble values most in their creative process.

This session was grounded in detailed scene work as we continued building The Comedy of Errors. After some initial discussion and planning, we jumped into Act 4, Scene 3, where the group brought strong instincts and clear character choices. The scene developed quickly through repetition, with each pass adding more specificity and confidence. We then moved into Act 4, Scene 4, focusing on staging and physical storytelling. The ensemble worked through the mechanics of the scene – particularly moments involving movement and coordination – offering ideas and adjustments to make the action clearer and more dynamic. The work required patience and collaboration, and the group continued to refine it together.

I arrived a bit late, waiting on materials for our Hamlet work, but the group was already gathered and ready to begin. After a quick check-in, we dove into Act 5, Scene 1 of Hamlet, with ensemble members stepping into the Gravedigger scene and immediately finding moments of humor and rhythm in the text. We spent time discussing how to adapt the final scene for a smaller group, problem-solving together and identifying what could be trimmed while still honoring the story. From there, we shifted back into The Comedy of Errors, continuing our work through Act 1, Scene 2.

This session was rooted in joy, collaboration, and the kind of play that reminds us why we do this work. After a longer check-in filled with warmth and connection, the ensemble shifted focus to preparing for the upcoming Volunteer Appreciation Event. What began as a logistical conversation quickly became a creative one, as participants imagined what they wanted to share.

The ensemble jumped into rehearsal almost immediately after arriving, energized by the arrival of props and new creative possibilities. The session focused heavily on pacing, scene work, and refining the growing world of The Comedy of Errors. Ensemble members filled in for missing roles throughout the evening, creating a collaborative rehearsal room where everyone supported one another and kept the show moving forward.
