This episode was inspired by a listener who wrote in about the challenge of choreographing fights alone. It can be difficult to imagine both sides or multiple opponents when you design without the benefit of a fight partner on the other end of the sword. How do you keep everything straight? And because your fight isn't "tested" with a partner, how do you know it will work when you give it to the actors in rehearsal?
