Anybody continue directing in their sleep? over the weekend I had nightmares, which escalated into me asking people to "please be quiet backstage" over and over in my dreams.
Am I just slowly going insane? Would be a simpler answer. Heheheh.  |

Hehe not going insane trutter. Once I woke myself up saying "Hold Please" in a very stern and well projected voice. Who knows what the neighbors thought was going on at 4 a.m. in my place.

just means you're very focused right now, my husband was once dead asleep and suddenly blurted out a standard phone message he'd had to leave about a hundred times at work that day, and then rolled over and continued sleeping soundly.

I have dream directed before, and I hate it, it's just the stress of trying to pull it all together. I was told that when I was in A Chorus Line, I would do the choreography in my sleep. My partnered would sleep in the spare room just to get a good night sleep from me hitting him.

The two greatest days in a theater persons life, the day you start a new show and the day the damn thing closes.

The Director got ahold of the Original Broadway Choreography and about 60% of the cast are professional dancers. After the first night of rehearsal we crawled out of the theater. We all thought we would never make it through this show alive.
 
By the time we opened no one complained about sore feet or legs anymore. But we ran the show for 6 months. The longest run we had for a show.

Don't feel too bad. During my last show (It was a melodrama), I woke my self up trying to get the audience to boo and hiss and make noise. That was of course after hours of trying get to sleep.
lol I guess I eat, sleep and breath a play when I'm directing it.

It's possibly a very good job Kendra, you were not doing a Panto.
It might have been a bit disconcerting Screaming out ;- "where is he?" "He's behind you!" "Oh no he's not?" "Oh yes he is!" |
