The best part of any start of a  play rehearsal process is receiving information from the show’s Dramaturg (if you’re lucky enough to have one.) The info usually includes and then goes beyond any sort of intelligence that you wake up every morning convincing yourself that you fully possess. Manhattan Theater Club’s Cake’s AD / Dramaturg, Hunter, went ABOVE AND BEYOND. Tabs include ‘Coconut Flour’ and ‘Masterpiece Cake Shop’ and ‘Bible.’ When you’re done reading it / learning from it, tip it over into a teepee, crawl inside of it, FIND SHELTER FROM IGNORANCE / THE RAIN.
