A brief tryout run at the American Repertory Theat<br />
er in Massachusetts last spring, however, allayed<br />
Mr. Hansard’s qualms. He recalled watching Ms. Mil<br />
ioti’s Girl telling Mr. Kazee’s Guy “to shape up,<br />
to live life, and everything would be all right” —<br />
moments that sent frissons through him.<br />
“The essence of the characters was still there,” Mr<br />
. Hansard said.<br />
Backstage afterward, Mr. Kazee recalled, he anxiou<br />
sly awaited Mr. Hansard’s review. “When Glen arriv<br />
ed, I stuck out my hand, and he just put his arms<br />
around me and gave me a big hug,” Mr. Kazee said.<br />
“He offered to tell me anything I wanted, anything<br />
about what he was thinking when he and Marketa wr<br />
ote the songs.<br />
“And who wouldn’t want that? Looking at the Mona L<br />
isa is great, but wouldn’t it be better if you cou<br />
ld actually talk to da Vinci while looking at it?”<br />
“That’s very generous,” Mr. Hansard said grandly, d<br />
rawing laughter.<br />
“But it’s true,” Mr. Kazee said. “Glen and Mar wer<br />
e at rehearsal the other day. We were singing ‘Fal<br />
ling Slowly’ in this tiny little room, and they we<br />
re there watching us, and it was the first time th<br />
at everything felt truly right.”<br />
