you know it's a kickass rehearsal when....

* Your director says: Lord have mercy, girl, you are wrenching my gut!

* The saris start telling you what to do. Become an extension of your physicality.

* You're so completely inside each character, you forget the scripted words.

* You're shaking with exhaustion at the end of it.

* But you could still hit the stage right now, and do a full performance.

* You can't wait to bust it out in Vienna.
