After what we hope was a restful Spring Break for the cast and crew of Woyzeck, we returned on Sunday evening to begin a week of what director Jonathan Cole described primarily as "layering." With the cast off book and the show roughly blocked, this week allowed the Woyzeck team to spend time working in exciting and innovative elements to the roughly sketched show.
With a cast of 12 that is onstage virtually the entire production, a lot of focus has been placed on determining which characters are doing what and when it occurs... Very exciting and challenging work for all involved... Special thanks this week to a dedicated shop crew and designer Christopher L. Harris for spending Spring Break pouring concrete and continuing work on the ever-expanding set, and to Assistant Director Britt Lauer for her hard work.
Costume elements are being added into the rehearsal process as they are developed, thanks to designer Bobby Brewer-Wallin and his diligent costume crew, and light hang and focus will occur this weekend. Lighting instruments will be hung and focused in the space to prepare for a technical rehearsal next weekend.
Be sure to keep checking back for rehearsal shots, this process is not to be missed!
Woyzeck runs April 17-May 2 with a preview on Thursday, April 16 at 7:30pm. Call 503.370.6221 or visit wutheatre.com for more information and tickets!
