PAC's Mary Stuart grabbed my acting soul and shook it.![]() My friends at the PAC dominate this play like the Seahawks dominated the Broncos. From start to finish, Dan Hodge brought the stakes, and the cast drove the arguments home from start to finish. A play with little to no set, staged in the round, and delivered with such precision, such power in the language is such a beautiful thing to watch. Each actor on stage commanded attention and gave each word, each moment its full potential. It was great to watch an ensemble of players work their way through this powerful story. It was doubly great to see someone who has helped me in my career, Krista Apple-Hodge bring this script to life with her amazing performance as Queen ELizabeth. To see the lessons Dan and Krista shared with me in their workshop about classical text in practice by the teachers was like taking a good deep breath after a cannonball. Equally chilling, was that in just a few months I will be working with many of these great actors such as Brian McCann and John Loepes in Hedgerow Theatre's production of Hamlet directed by Dan Hodge. Excited much? Not too much, a much too much.
