Troilus And Cressida

I was cast as Priam and Calchas, the fathers of Troilus and Cressida respectively. Funny, I've read the whole play very slowly, getting ready to read it a few more times before the first rehearsal on the 29th, and it only occurred to me yesterday or the day before that I'm playing both fathers. Very small parts script-wise, but I expect to have some fun with it. Maybe look for a mannerism or characteristic from each of the title characters to incorporate into their fathers.

I'll probably be helping with set/prop design and construction. Lucky it's going to be a minimal set so it won't overwhelm me. Tomorrow...
