Week Nine: RIII Rehearsal Report

Mar 2, 2023

Happy Thursday! Welcome back to Acting Class Daily. Today we’re personalizing the work with a themed knicknack from this week’s class, a formative moment of magic … and, most importantly, Bauer’s chance to say hello.

Richard III Rehearsal Report (Elysium Conservatory Theatre - 2018)

This is one of my favorite pictures. Ever.

I’m so proud of the humility, focus, work ethic, and kindred connection it captures.

A cast fresh off a full run-through of Richard III, pouring their experiences into their rehearsal reports.

Artists who hunger to grow, to move themselves forward, to make the most of every chance they get to live in character.

It’s the blossoming of the rehearsal flower.

It’s what we mean by Earned Excellence.

A moment of rehearsal magic.
