    The Valet is so much fun in this performance. Good balance of humorous and eerie.

    That was an honestly great delivery of the “hell is other people” line. Kinda sent a chill down my spine, especially the cackling that followed it. Very nice existential absurdity

      To be fair we had a huge industrial fan going on in the background cause there was no AC in that theatre at the time 😅 and it was burning hot (like true hell 😂) because of a heatwave in Montreal but yes indeed my voice was weak on projection during that production 😅 sorry.

      ​​@@jomic9060 This was back in 2018 so I couldn't exactly tell you the number of hours since it's far in my head but we had about 2 months of rehearsals. We started in May and the show was beginning July. Personally, I did a lot of work on the character and learning my lines out of the rehearsal time. Every rehearsals I would get new notes from the director or assistant director and I would go back and work on it. We definitely had a lot of character work. I found Estelle challenging but yet so fun as she has so many sides to her personality but all in one character. She has a great range of emotions which is so fun to play with because you don't always get the chance to play characters with so many mood swings or changes in a play. Which is also the same reason that makes her challenging but I love a good challenge :) Personally if I could play her again I would still tweek and change a few things as there is always something to improve.

    Have not doubt saying that for me, you can find the best Satre in Huis Clos and then in Baudelaire biography. Huis Clos impressed me when read it, when about sixteen years old. Thought it a very good theater work. Understood pretty well his conclusion "hell are others". The dialogues are brilliant, the plot kept me all time let's say breathless, so awesome I found it. Think it's a haunting theater work, a very clever and realistic one. Then his Baudelaire bio is possibly the best you can read about this great Poet. Sartre uses the psychoanalytic method, one could say, to allow you to enter really within Baudelaire peculiarities. It's just a great work also. Don't doubt in recommending it, if you're interested in whom is, maybe considered as the greatest of all poets. So perfect in metric and rhyme his symbolic poetries are. Baudelaire was quite a fascinating character, never better explained and scanned than through the Sartre introspective mind. It's a passionating way to get into this poet singular personality. An excellent work that had me inside the man since its first page. These two works are both an excellent reading. Much better than the for me boring La Nausée, or his Short Stories in The Wall, or his Le Diable et le Bon Dieu, writings I also read, from this author and philosopher. Don't doubt in watching or reading Huis Clos. And don't miss the famous Sartre's Baudelaire analysis, in case you know nothing about it yet. You'll be surprised of the deepness and quality level of both works. They are Classics nowadays. 🤔🙄😳💎❤️👍🤗🙏

    • @everett9199
      @everett9199 2 роки тому +4

      From what I understand:
      Inez (the red shirt girl) had cheated on her lover with another man and two other women, one of them being Florence. They murdered the original man and then fled the crime scene. Inez kept Florence around as her new lover for a time, despite apparently saying how much she despised her. Later, Inez found Florence making love to someone else, and was shot by her. The audio isn't great, so I may be misunderstanding her story, but what seems most focused is that it was love-related chaos, and explains her fondness for Estelle.

      Its been a while since ive read the script. But i think that florence was the wife of [red shirt]’s cousin. [red shirt] seduced her. Cousin died of unrelated causes. [red shirt] and Florence moved inn together as lovers. Florence commits murder suicide one day, by turning on the gas before they went to sleep.
