I feel like the theatre requires honesty different from truth, which sounds like splitting hairs. However, you describe honesty (especially in your last example with Tom W.) because the truth was that people were worried about you as a person, not as the character. When you were able to let the audience know you were okay (truth), you could all return to an honest agreement of participating in story telling and story watching. I love it! This type of relationship with audience helped me develop my inner witness so that I could be more honest AND truthful with myself in real life. Very cool stuff!!! Thank you for sharing your experiences, Paul.
