All of the hard work is starting to show results. The whole cast met for the first time at our first group read-through of the script. I have cast at least three of them against type, so several were surprised by which character they were offered and likewise some of the actors were taken aback by who they would be working across. This is just the right combination of comfort and unease about the casting, as well as the raunchy material that I feel is necessary for each to find the show challenging but still completely surmountable. Things are underway and the excitement is growing.
