The first day of rehearsal landing on Rickman’s birthday feels like a good sign! Brought dessert to rehearsal to celebrate. Excited to get to work, even if it is a kid’s show. ❤️

Rachel Corrie (April 10, 1979 – March 16, 2003)
«Rachel, who came to Rafah to stop the tanks. We remember her with love and honour as an inspiration.»
«This has to stop. I think it is a good idea for us all to drop everything and devote our lives to making this stop. I don't think it's an extremist thing to do anymore. I still really want to dance around to Pat Benatar and have boyfriends and make comics for my coworkers. But I also want this to stop.»
– Rachel Corrie, excerpt from an email to her parents [in My Name is Rachel Corrie, taken from the writings of Rachel Corrie, edited by Alan Rickman and Katharine Viner, with the permission of the Corrie family, in collaboration with the Royal Court Theatre International Department, Theatre Communications Group, New York, NY, 2006, pp. 49-50]

29 December
7.45pm Edna O’Brien. In four hours or so, Edna tells us tale after tale of Beckett, Pinter – “When I see him on Monday he will say immediately: ‘You have seen The Caretaker, of course’ – ‘No, I have been away’ – ‘Well, then you have seen Betrayal.’ The trouble is writers write from pain and Harold has closed up all his wounds, so all he can write now are these small things.”
