lorenzo the unfeeling monologue from sarah ruhl's melancholy play is a poem to me. at its core it really is not poetry because it is a monologue from a play and it is a different medium all together. but it feels like a poem when i hold it in my hands.

Update: Tilly. What a dream role. Whole show. Fantastic. Tilly and Joan literally crawled into the aisle and sat at my feet. 10/10
