~Directed by a guy who tells us how we're going to blank on stage and start sweating and it will be the

"Her feelings would get hurt in the real world"?! What the hell does that even MEAN?

Sorry, I work in the real world - playwrights are at rehearsals all the time. And they should be. Unfortunately, your director doesn't know what he's talking about.

And you're right, telling the cast how WELL they're going to do is a little better motivation than telling them they'll sweat and blank out! :)

Awww thanks Tony! I really wish more professionals could tell him stuff like that- because he doesn't care what we have to say! He already got kicked out of an MFA program for acting, and now he's trying for directing. Good luck to him...(I'm getting mean now) Anyway, you should come to the show and have a DUEL! (Except coming to the show would probably prove a waste of your time...) Well thanks for what you said, and I'll be sure to pass it on to the playwright!
