Don Juan in Tech Rehearsal February 2013. Photo: Manuel Rotenberg. Dancers: Maxim Tchernychev & Rachel Sebastian-Hagquist. Here is where we see a bit of the core of this Don Juan. M Don Juan is not a predator. He is just naturally attractive to women. he rarely makes the first move. Now that doesn't make him an innocent.

But things rarely turn out well for him. In the end, it asks the question, as humans do we just follow where our nature leads us, or do we make decisions as to when we should or should not go along with our nature. Both Rachel and Max were great when it came to setting this section. No egos.

Daily Stuff: This morning I attended an assembly at the San Diego SCPA for a production of In The Heights that is being done in conjunction with the SD Rep. Very nice to see some of the young actors and dancers, not just from Zoot Suit, but Tommy and Hairspray as well.

It was good to start wrapping my head around the show and what I want to do with it.
