That was so good Josh. Very Glassian. What I really liked was your use of music and musicallity. When i directed this we didn’t do any actual singing. We just used cadances and rythmic differences to tell the story. Very cool. The staging was also a lot of fun, especially the part when they stole the loaf and played monkey in the middle with it (very Noises Off). I’d love for you to see the one Steve was in so we could compare and contrast. It was totally a fun project though

If you’ve got a slow internet connection (like many of those in South America) you may have to hit the pause button once it starts and allow it to download the majority of the video before letting it play. Computers aren’t that smart.

I really enjoyed that. To be there in the audience must have been great, to get drawn in and in stereo. Neat!
Like an old vinyl I wanted to nudge the needle :0)

Just watched it, and I really like it.

I saw a horrible production of it a few years ago (the actors were fantastic, but the director was atrocious). He had an interesting concept, though – the actors played it like an acting game, where each line had to be repeated in a different manner, different inflection at each repetition.

I like yours better, though.

I haven’t had a chance to watch either video you’ve posted yet, but I do still have the mini-poster from All in the Timing on my bulletin board.

I remember reading this from the script when I was there to visit in 2003. I pictured it all in my head but your production was better than I ever imagined.

A local theatre group did All In the Timing here in Orlando, but I didn’t see the flyer for it until the day after the last performance!

Ah… the art of the actor. Lemme just say it wasn’t easy. To answer your question: practice, practice, practice. I’m glad you enjoyed it
