It was the first 1984 rehearsal tonight. Being a producer and director can be stressful but when you all get into a room and it all just slots together the buzz is unreal. Love this cast. 😍

Dionysus Theatrotheos

"The God of Theatre". This epithet suggests that Dionysus sustains the art of theater. Through the devotion of his followers, theater has become inseparable from him. He does not only influence theater, but becomes theater itself and its very essence. Every part of the stage reflects his presence, embodying the spirit of theater in every play.

I think the best thing about liking theatre is that when you get a little crazy about a character (in any way shape or form), you can wear their skin if you like. You can say their words and perform as them in front of an audience and for a play’s duration you have as much claim to that character as anyone else who’s ever performed them has. And it’s literally the best way you can honour them and keep them alive. Which is my biggest issues with movies and tv shows and all that is it’s seperate and only really ever one idea done with one set of people, and if the same idea keeps showing up it’s generally a bad thing. But with theatre and performing arts, you can do the same thing over and over with different people and it fucking rocks every time
