Set a spike for an actor. And they miss it by a mile

It's Opening Night! Tonight is SOLD OUT, so hurry and get your tickets for the remaining performances! This cast is beyond talented, and even more resilient. We have been through a lot, and worked so hard. I am already so proud of my fellow Nuns for simply being incredible human beings. So much leg breakage to my fellow cast members tonight. I love you all so much. www.pceshows.com #realtor #realtorlife #coldwellbanker #theatreisback #theatresavedmylife #theatrefamily #sisteract #musical #musicaltheatre #singingnuns #openingnight #actor #actorlife #breakaleg #buyingahome #sellingahome #buyandsellhomeswithkathie (at Plant City Entertainment, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRZLVKGLJFR/?utm_medium=tumblr

ACT I - A sacrifice

17-09-20

Words from a quarantined mind, words taken from a very strange time, words of agony, of a man, sick, with a virus we don’t fully understand. But having won this virus, those words have survived, through polluted air, have flown away in the night, and now, a beam of light playing around the dark clouds that are still above us, lights up those words, of a man who reaches the stars, lights up this absolutely terrific experience into the dreamy atmosphere of uncertainty. A beam of hope is hiding behind that stage.

There is nothing that could replace the human beingness, ever. The digital era has found a very good excuse to use its powers now. But the theatrical experience shall not fall here. It is a risk for some audiences as I hear. Does action and reaction still fit into the theatre? The energy spreads faster than anything we can’t and can see, the energy cannot be stopped from a paper mask. Let us keep that energy alive.

And what if, this is a risk? Everything is. We should consider this. Is it a risk taken from both sides? Maybe. Every breath is and only time will tell. For now, I call it a great sacrifice for the one who’s standing up. A live battle against a very highly possible event, talking about another battle, a fight against the true outcome of this event, something around us, maybe next to us, maybe inside us, maybe not. A sacrifice for the arts.

 Beat the Devil, the new play by David Hare is now playing at the Bridge Theatre until 31st October.
