Ben Browder and [female lead] Claudia Black are terrific, |
He controlled all of his matches today. A couple of spots he got into trouble, but he's a good scrambler. He pretty much controlled the guys he wrestled today. |
He would have been a shoo-in to go in on the first ballot. |
I think the play has a real resonance, given where we are right now. |
I'm not saying he can't beat a lot of guys. But I'm worried about Tommy in 10 years, ... As his friend I'm advising him not to fight. As commissioner I will not overrule his return if a doctor says he's fit to box. |
I'm ready. I want to play Placer Hillmen football at Le Febvre Stadium. This is one of the best weeks of the year, it's great to see all the alumni come back. |
It's about individual women and their personal tragedies, ... The play traces the arc of the grieving process and what the women's lot in life will be. I was telling the cast last night that our focus has to be telling the stories of those women, and letting the audience make the connection: The play's not political propaganda, it's art. |
Part of the challenge of doing 'The Trojan Women' -- and something I struggled with as I was conceptualizing the play -- was how to make it relevant without coming across as anti-solider. |
The dialogue about corpses washing up was difficult to get through in rehearsals, |
There's a lot of work to do on this. |
These are the victims that we don't see, or rarely see, |
These craftsmen here are world-class craftsmen. It's unbelievable what they can do. |
We're in rehearsals and Katrina's hitting, and we're hearing about the National Guard troops and equipment that is not available for disaster relief because they're over fighting in Iraq. |
