\u201cAri is very, very worried that I\u2019m not resting enough, so she\u2019s consistently texting. Jeff sent the most beautiful love letter. I love Jeff very, very much, and Jonathan. That everyone\u2019s so lovely … it feels like we have a little bit of a family.\u201d<\/p>\n
She added: \u201cI learn it in chunks. What you have to do is learn it with a reason. So I have to know where [the characters] are and what they\u2019re doing and why they\u2019re saying things, and that\u2019s the only way I can commit it to memory. You learn it almost like a dancer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Erivo also described how she integrates rehearsal into her daily routine while training for the London Marathon, aiming for a time under three hours and 30 minutes.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cWhile I\u2019m running, I run the run lines in my head. I\u2019m trying to make good use of every moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
Discussing the aftermath of each performance, she said: \u201cThere\u2019s so much poured into it, emotionally, physically, mentally, everything is switched on. I don\u2019t switch off at all.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverything is on and everything is firing all the time so that when you come off, you go, \u2018Where am I? Yeah, am I again?\u2019 And so it takes a second to just put everything back together. Yeah, it takes me a while to get to get to sleep. I don\u2019t get sleep until like, 1am in the morning.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cAri is very, very worried that I\u2019m not resting enough, so she\u2019s consistently texting.
