No, no... I don't believe I've created debt that way. Not that I haven't done less-than-stellar shows before, but that's just the way things go.
This is karmic debt of a higher degree.

Not really I'm not. I'm sure everyone has those things in their lives they'd atone for.

I had to leave early last Sunday morning to get here to Abilene to begin rehearsals on Monday for LARAMIE PROJECT.
It has been a crazy week. Aside from rehearsing an intense, difficult play, I have had some difficult decisions to make in the whole work department - it's not been easy, and I'll mention what the decisions wound up being in an entry soon.
This play is a great piece, and it could easily wind up being very stoic and overly serious and "Important" in the presentation of it. Luckily, I'm back at Great Plains Theatre Festival working with a very talented director, Richard Esvang. When I worked here years ago, in their first season, it was the most important grounding in professional theatre I ever had. I'm glad to be back.
I feel - I hope - that doing this play also will serve as a bit of a catharsis for me. I have a lot of karmic debt to repay, I guess I'm saying, and I want my participation in this to be pure enough that... I hope we're able to move some people, make them think maybe. To be able to do some good, here. That sounds so damnably pretensious. I don't mean it that way, I just need to do some good.
