The Seeing Place Theater spends a good deal of their rehearsal processes not doing the play. They remove the text completely at the beginning. Think Whose Line is it Anyway? - but not so shticky. They improvise their way through the situations of a play until they are telling the same story as the playwright. There's a lot of falling down, a lot of failure. Many times, they do not accomplish the demands of a scene right away. It isn't until the final week or two that they add the lines and their productions begin to take the shape that the audience will see. Thus, their whole rehearsal process is spent exploring the characters and the situations in which they find themselves. In this way, the play becomes more than just words. It is a true collaboration between all of the artists involved. Every member of the ensemble - from actors to directors to designers - is called upon to bring their own viewpoints to the table. That is what gives The Seeing Place its unique stamp.
