From time to time I was positing updates about the rehearsals and how some were going good and others going bad but overall I felt that we made it happen. Hearing how the other casts got along and although we did argue a fair bit I believed it helped us; got all the negativity off everyone's chest and just allowed things to flow. In order to have a successful show you need to have strong belief in what you're doing and for that to come across you need to put the hours in behind the scenes and also in the rehearsal process.
There were times I felt like I was giving my character enough life and thought I was playing myself and then this led me to doubt my skills as an actor and the person I am. There would be days I came in and felt so low I wanted to leave school but there was something in air; the belief my director gave me and the reassurance from a few fellow actors that things would be positive and that drove me to have a successful rehearsal process and I know now that there's always a light at the end of a dark tunnel, you're just gonna have to fight through the things that are stopping you.
