Watching Vinie Burrows rehearse is like taking a series of master classes housed in split seconds. I imagine it would be like listening to Leontyne Price warm up. She is hungry to find the truth of every moment onstage - she risks levels of vulnerability and presence that raise the barre for us all. "Curiosity," she told me today, "is the hallmark of the artist." I relish watching her seek the furthermost edge of her experience with her character, Mother Dixon, and step firmly into the unknown territories. Curious - with the courage to back it up.
