4000 Miles

There were moments we all as student felt were unnecessary, like the part that they got high. But for some reason, it made sense & didn't at the same time. Everything they were saying was just coming out so smoothly, fortunately. Sometimes, the characters would lose their words throughout the script for some reason. Very Strange.

There was definitely a motif of 'passive-aggressiveness' from Vera towards Leo. For example, when he broke the knob on accident; In his mind, he thought it had always been that way. She said things like 'you could have admitted you did but it's fine. I'll just have to pay for it. Don't worry about.' I really loved the idea Dr. Fletcher compared passive-aggressiveness to: He said it is equivalent to punishment without confrontation. That is very interesting to me & Vera constantly did that to Leo, throughout the whole script.

  1. She did indeed! And yes, it was strange that even in the loss of their words and scrambled communication, the play could maintain such unity and flow.
