Tonight our rehearsal took place in Central Park's Strawberry Fields. Just a five minute walk away from the Delacorte Theatre where the Public Theatre does their annual free production of Shakespeare in the Park.
I've spent 5 summers in New York and Shakespeare in the Park is one of my most favorite things in all the world!!! It's a magical environment where I have experienced some of the most memorable nights of my little life. It would be an absolute dream come true to play that stage.
Tonight, we played in the field, but it was public enough to have a few lookers-on. Good practice in focusing and a great environment to play with the text. I've said it countless times to myself and others, that New York is a place that you can absolutely live your dreams. It might not be the version exactly as I imagined, but if I'm grateful for the version I DO get, then it makes the rest of it that much sweeter.
