A Company Member's Perspective: In Response to "Reflection"

by Adam Roper

Similarly, I realize that the show was so universal. In that, people who do not have any sort of theatre training can "get it". I am so tired of pieces that seem to me like an inside joke. But it "While We Were Waiting" is not about excluding the audience, or even about making the 6 artists on stand a collective, but instead to show everyone that we are all the same. We all experience loss, replacement, fear, nervousness, joy, laughter, love, struggle and boredom. And that all of these things can be beautiful! And that we can feel all of these things without fear of being judged. :)
