An hour rehearsing with Kim Parkhill, reprising Brutus' "Give me your hands, all o'er, one by one…" speech from Julius Caesar, and rehearsing the Brecht/Eisler Einheitsfrontlied, performed with dominoes. Positioning: under a table for Shakespeare, the other actors conspiratorially huddled as stand-in audience; on a table-top for the Song of the United Front. Lighting by flashlights. In the former, Brutus pleads in favour of political action against an oppressive leader; in the latter, workers are rallied to action to change an oppressive class system. (Photos by Zach Faye.)
