The play I'm directing has six characters. I'd like to start rehearsals with a table reading early next week, but at this point I've only cast three of the parts. There are a couple of good actors who want to audition, but I won't see them until Friday. In the meantime, will one of the good actors I already saw get cast in something else and become unavailable?
One of the really strong signs that I am gaining wisdom as I get older is that it has only once so far occurred to me that I could simplify the process by playing one of the parts myself. As well as directing. I used to do this a lot, back in the days of blind ambition.
