Moments of Magic

Week Twenty Six: Juliet's Funeral

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.

Juliet’s Funeral (Romeo & Juliet - ECT, 2017)

When I think of one of my favorite sequences I’ve ever directed, my heart returns to Juliet’s Funeral.

The artists, words, and music.

The set, lighting and staging.

What a team. What a moment.

Magic.
