What we’re doing here, on this Saturday fellowship, is we are reawakening the imagination. Because we all, myself included, have been overly socialized and that put us on a leash. People ask: “Is it ok if I do this?” Well, you can do whatever you like and when you look at people you admire, whether it’s Jim Carrey or Melissa McCarthy or Cate Blanchett, those people, my experience of them is that they don’t ever say “Is it ok IF...?” They just do what moves them, then it moves us, because we love the freedom and the permission they give themselves to be expressive. So, go for it. You come from a theatrical family, you know what to do. Take it and do something that maybe is the opposite of what anybody would imagine you might do with that text. That will be uniquely your statement.
