“Buf­foon­ing with Trilby Jeeves brought me up close and per­sonal with the his­toric char­ac­ter I was writ­ing and per­form­ing. Prior to buf­foon­ing, I now real­ize I was merely cov­er­ing events in the story like it was so much data. The jour­ney to find­ing my buf­foon con­nected me with Anne emo­tion­ally, phys­i­cally and intel­lec­tu­ally, on a level I hadn’t before expe­ri­enced. My writ­ing now has a clearer pur­pose and I know instinc­tively which motifs and sto­ry­lines to con­nect and enhance. In fact, this piece, Anne Thomas, has moved to become a mono­logue, because the char­ac­ter is so strong. Thanks, Trilby.”
