"How can I be big if you ain't? How can anybody?"

Now in week 3 of rehearsals with Cardinal Stage Company's ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST and so far the journey has been quite interesting.  We officially moved into the quarters of the theatre company to rehearse with parts of the assembled set which are still in the process of being completed. Working with a rough version of the set will prove to be extremely helpful for myself as an actor as I track my journey through the play and where my character exists within the confides of the mental institution.  Getting a feel for the cage-like qualities of the room really helps inform character and story for such a large ensemble of performers.  Costume pieces are still being gathered and prepared which will also help add another crucial dimension and layer to the storytelling.  When everything starts coming together in rehearsals I am confident that this will only develop and grow into a fabulous live stage production which audiences will be greatly affected and moved by.
