Why Do We Do This?
Sat, 1 Apr 2000, 08:36 amJust a quick ponder - why do we do this? Plays, I mean. After all the late night rehearsals, lack of sleep, occasional (!) in-house bitching & quibbles, blocking out Friday & Saturday nights for a period......why after all that do we suddenly miss it all and decide to launch into another production! Are we crazy?

A good question Siobhan, why do we do it ? The answer no doubt is not the same for everyone. For some its to reinforce confidence in oneself, for others it might be a deep seated wish that they will be noticed by some talent scout and end up in Hollywood, rich and famous. There must be hundreds of reasons "why we do it" . Its a question I have asked myself, standing in the wings, waiting for my cue to enter. I think that when I really examine the Question, that the answer is the fun , the friendship, that one gets whilst being in rehearsal. Perhaps Ive been lucky over the years working with friendly people, but I have never been in the situation, where I have said to myself, " oh not another rehearsal tonight" The performances at the end, of rehearsals are simlply a bonus for me [ At least I think so ]
