Quote of the day: “Please heed the pauses and silence. They are of great importance — they are just as important as the dialogue — and every one of them was placed in the script with extreme care. If you skip over or rush through these silences, you are performing a different play.” (Annie Baker’s ‘Author’s Note’ to her Mirror Circle Transformation)
