As a director, I imagine one of your most delicate challenges would be how to run the rehearsal process for “The Miracle Worker”. Do you actually blindfold the little girl playing Helen Keller so she gets the sense of no sight if she doesn’t act blind enough? What about ear plugs if her mumblings are too intelligible? Would she need to sign a release form making the theatre company not liable in case she ran into a chair or worse? How would you deal with her stage parents if they didn’t want her to come off as “too disabled”? Obviously, I have a lot to learn.

My friend Maegan had more to say. Here it is ” Tell him to watch the Thanksgiving episode of South Park from a few years ago where the kids put on “The Miracle Worker”. He’ll get lots of ideas. They probably won’t be good ones, but he’ll get lots of ideas.”

Ooh…yikes. How WOULD you go about that?
I saw your mom and dad at the Thiel’s party. They’re so happy for you! I’m caught up on your life now.
