Actress D’Arcy
Harrison is in play 7. I sat down to interview her during lunch and Hannah
Schnabel immediately walked over to figure out costumes. That’s the thing about
14/48, there’s always something happening. Any spare moment not in rehearsal is
spent figuring out costumes and props or memorizing lines. There really isn’t a
moment to breathe.

Hannah’s pulling
out costumes for D’Arcy. Hannah’s found a number of possibilities, but both
agree that she'll need to "slut them up" for the part. D'Arcy's character is a mix of alien humanoid and real housewives.
Today D’Arcy’s
character develops more. Yesterday she played a voice in a woman’s head and her
character was stuck in limbo. Today’s play “is less sort of dark and deep. This
is more fun and social commentary.” Her character is “the one humanoid who
doesn’t seem to fit in with the other humanoids.”
The most unexpected
part of 14/48? “I thought there would be more pages.” She was “happy and
surprised” by how short the plays were and found it to be less daunting.
