Tempest: A World of Pure Imagination

You know how you always wish you could just put a plug into your brain and what you're creating so amazingly in your cranium will just magically write/draw/compose itself?  Directing is kind of like that.

It's always a thrill to see the images in your head spring to life at the hands of talented actors and actresses.  Naturally, there are changes, modifications, betterments - since theatre is a communal art - but I thought you might get a kick out of seeing the side-by-sides of how I imagined something and how it's turning out

You can see all of last night's rehearsal photos here and here.
