 I'm Vera Sarbert, I'm with Perseverance Theatre, their playwright in Residence, theatre, how has the theatre changed through my residency? That was kind of the question. I think just by the virtue of me being there, when I started I was the only native staff at the time. And just by virtue of being there I increased their native staff by 100% and I think a new perspective in the room. Having a playwright on staff I think has a little bit started to, let me show the theatre that we do a lot of work, like the plays don't just sort of magically appear. There's an awful lot to be done before it gets to the point of production or even workshops that there's a lot of stuff going on for years before any of the theatre staff get to see it. It's a little bit more difficult because half of the season is in Juneau and half of the season is in Anchorage. So I'm in Anchorage with only one other full-time staff member and going to the Juneau office is much more rare than it is for me to see them up when they're doing the season in Juneau. I don't think I'm fairly articulate in the way that it's changed the theatre. I think we're still figuring out how to change it. I think the ideas that we had going in and some of the roles I would play, we actually took away at the end of the first year because that wasn't working. The role I have right now of leading the playwright circle I think is much more impactful and that wasn't even an idea when we first started sort of organizing this group that didn't have a home before and I think I do that pretty well. So I think it's taken some of that work off of somebody's hands. We've only known you for a couple of years as a first-time playwright before the fellowship started and what I've seen is like even just before we came upstairs we had a conversation about one of the writers in the writer's circle and how to support that writer in his process and the facility that Vera had with the playwright's process and how to support a playwright as a theatre company is so much richer and deeper, just the understanding of that even after just a few years of working as a playwright it's been such a fast and beautiful and quick learning curve for you so it's been great to see.
