I’ve done shows and been to shows at certain places for many years and I know what this means to get on stage here versus here. I don’t have that context the way I may have in New York. And also, a lot of venues, I don’t know the vibe of that theater or what it means to the people who go there. What’s the ultimate space for it? And that’s still open for interpretation. Even a theater area that’s a comedy venue or has a lot of comedy, or alternative spaces like a rock club, it’s a looser feel.ĭifferent elements of the show are based on the context, which is fun. Let it free.” I think that’s an inherent thing of theatrical presentation.
( Laughs.) People will cover their mouth as if they aren’t supposed to laugh, and literally stifle it, and I’m like, “Please. When it’s presented as theater the audience is a little more reserved. What I like to feel is that the way the show is, that once it gets going, once it’s really in motion, and certainly hopefully by the end, the hope is that it no longer matters where we are. I think venues can have a significant effect both on me and the audience. Is it more intimate? Are the crowds different? I’m curious how performances in theater spaces differ from other types of spaces. The show will be at the Den Theatre here in Chicago. Or the temptation to.ġ1/4-11/7: Thu 7 PM, Fri-Sat 7 and 9:30 PM, Sun 4 PM, Den Theatre, 1331 N. So, it’s like, the stress of being able to infinitely change it. It’s an option that I wouldn’t have if I was performing someone else’s words, right. Me being aware that I have the power to change the words because I wrote them. That’s probably the biggest challenge for me. The framing of it as a show is the bigger challenge.Īnd then, I would say, just because I’m a constant tinkerer-I always look to change and improve stuff and the current hour and a half show has just so much there that I could endlessly improve. I’ve put my name and my title on the whole show.
Natural, because I’ve been doing this for a long time, you know. So, it doesn’t feel weird to me in that sense, it feels very natural to me in that sense.
Otherwise, being on stage alone is stand-up. That’s probably the most challenging for me just because I have this feeling of like, “Did I just say this? Am I repeating myself?” I’m in some crazy loop where I don’t realize that I’ve skipped something cause I feel like I already said it, because I said it earlier that evening. I would say probably one of the biggest challenges in what I have to do, or what I have the glorious opportunity to do, is two shows in a night. Obviously you have, you know, enough experience, but are there still significant challenges in terms of carrying the entirety of the performance? I want to start off by talking about your one-woman show. Jacqueline Novak: That’s wonderful! It’s perfect.
