Acting in the Moment (of Uncertainty), Part One
This is great! I saw Behanding during its opening weekend and I can remember musing at all the things that could go wrong - from the keys to the candle to everything in between - and wondered what they would do if something went wrong. Would a stage-ninja run out and fix whatever prop went awry? Would the show be blown? Well, of course not, with so many variables they surely would be prepared. Like the article says, "It's an art inside the craft." I must say that honestly I was sitting there hoping something would go wrong, not because I wanted to see the actors suffer but because that's all the fun of theatre, but that night went off without a hitch. The play was frightfully enjoyable even without any glitches, but for the morbid technical-difficulties theatre enthusiast in me this article slated my hunger. There's nothing better than reading it in the actor's own words, too!— February 15, 2012 10:03 a.m.
