Whenever Cooper, Vivian, and I had our scene in the second act where he is yelling at her, it was always insanely hard to keep acting when the audience is laughing hysterically because of Coopers outfit. That was 100% the hardest scene to get through.

“Every Breath You Take” by The Police. Sampson is a pretty creepy guy when it comes to women, so I feel like he would love it.

Cayden and I had to place huge black fabric on the main platform. It always got tangled and we never covered all of the color completely. We tried multiple times to figure out a solution but each one was worse than the other until I decided to roll the fabric up. We were finally successful in getting the set covered without taking an awkward amount of time detangling.
