I didn't know why I was there.
He allowed me to pick a monologue from a different play that we then spliced into the play.
The monologue that I did was very focused on sexual abuse.
I have an experience of sexual abuse outside of Kato, and that was brought into the play.
The monologue that I did was about sexual abuse.
I am talking about my own sexual abuse experience, and a sexual abuser in front of me is directing me on how to make that performance better.
I don't even think now I can process how fucked up that is.
I was a 19 year old doing that.
I had recently gotten out of a mental hospital.
I checked myself in because I was processing sexual abuse that had happened to me as a child.
And immediately after getting out of that facility, I am then thrown into rehashing this sexual abuse trauma with someone that has contributed to that experience.
We hadn't been in like a full-length play together at that point.
I was really excited to work with her and I think that contributed to the confusion and awfulness that I was experiencing because I would get to hang out with my best friend and then it would be this incredibly triggering and traumatizing material that we're doing.
It was so uncomfortable.
I remember just constantly being in fight or flight and so terrified of messing up or saying the wrong thing.
Now, of course, that makes sense.
I had acknowledged in my brain that Cato was an abuser, that he was engaging in this inappropriate behavior, and then had somehow backtracked that in my mind.
Actually, he's a director that I want to work with, that I feel safe working with.
There was just like a disconnect there.
It was terrifying and awful.
