Ken Wantanabe rehearsing with Kelli O’Hara.
You said you like to keep it fresh and change it up. How does Kelli react on stage?
One time, after the whipping scene, I fell on the floor. I didn’t tell Kelli. Just two guards to help me and take [me] off the stage. I fell down, then everybody was so surprised [mimics a loud gasp]. But Kelli was wondering, was it a real heart attack? At end of the scene, I go back to the side stage. At curtain call, I said “I’m so sorry.” She said, “I’ll kill you.”
