"I keep my head down and both eyes wide"

As we approach that day, I am going to share with you some of my inspirations as I've been figuring the enigmatic character of Feste out, culminating in a full blog report on my process and discoveries once the show has closed.
​
First up, Margaret Glaspy. She's one of my favorite musicians of all time, but has become particularly special to me as I work on this show. Her music has shaped how I think of Feste and has literally provided the soundtrack to my process of research and discovery.
​
I think this song in particular is a spot on representation of one of the many sides of Feste's personality: The bittersweet nature of her loneliness. Relationships are hard and Feste is a fool without someone to take care of her. Of course, part of her likes that independence because in many ways its easier... something that I, Elizabeth, can totally relate to.
​
As you'll see though (when you come see Twelfth Night *wink*), it isn't something that anyone could sustain, not even the Fool.
