On Saturday I got home late and did forget to change the clocks before going to bed. We were springing 1 hour ahead here in Chicago. Around 10:45am my daughter reminded me that we had to change the time. Of course I jumped, got ready and reached late for our play reading reviews. I thought I was being quiet inentering the studio theatre where the reviews were in progress, and I heard this warm friendly, “Hi Reeta”, from Will Dunne. I lost some of the guilt i was experiencing for not getting there early, and returned his greeting, “Hi Will”, in a normal tone.
It had been six months since most of the same people in that room had come together. Some of us, had for the first time come up with a 10 minute short play thanks to Will’s coaching, and the Kiran Bavikatte foundation. Now here we were almost all of us back and listening to our final reviews. Missed Pushkar who is in Boston, and called in from there. How cool is this our plays are being rehersed and we just have a few short days to revise anything we wish to, after the final review last Sunday.
