John Ore

While working on this production, I was responsible for three different directors with three overlapping casts, and I served as a mentor for two underclassmen rehearsal stage managers (who would later serve as my ASMs for the run of the show). This production brought with it a number of new challenges, including the incorporation of intimacy. We did not stage the script as written due to COVID safety limitations, but the directors and I worked closely to establish good practices in both the audition room (our incredibly thorough Intimacy Disclosure Form can be viewed on the right) and in the rehearsal room, ensuring that the emotional and physical well-being of our actors was our top priority.

While we adapted our practices to best suit our particular group, many of our strategies and research came from Chelsea Pace's book, Staging Sex.
