Readings

So no new scenes to post yet, but I think that's okay since we're all focusing on the first act right now with the reading in Chicago happening next week and the reading in Edmonton happening....??? When is that exactly?

For those in Chi-town (who aren't already participating), come on out. Monday, June 9, 8pm at Victory Gardens Biograph Theatre. Tis free. T'would be lovely to see you and get your feedback!

And then after the craziness of all of this, check back because I have to finish the play before August, so I will be posting scenes in July, if not before.

xox to all of you!

I have no idea what is going on this this. No one has contacted me other anything so that's why I havn't been at the readings.

If someone could fillme in that would be great.

Thanks.

it went well, except casey messed up the new parts you sent us that morning (...) none of us that have been doing this for a while were surprised at all. anywho, steve recorded it. so i'll see if i can pass a copy onto you and there were pictures taken, i'll see if i can get ahold of them. we're all very excited now for next year!
(and we really want to do rain...)

does that mean Rain is your favorite?

glad it went well although I feel bad for Casey. that 2nd act scene is tricky without a lot of rehearsing.

jasmine, we had a reading in chicago last monday and a reading at nextfest this last saturday. they were of act one plus one scene from act 2. i'm sorry you weren't contacted. i wasn't there or i would have made sure of it.

i will be posting the next act very soon... i have to finish the play by August, so of course i'll want everyone's opinions. so stay tuned! your feedback is always really helpful.

i really like rain, i've never got a chance to read the entire script, but ive read most of it and i'd love to be a part of it. plus as far as i know its never been fully staged in edmonton and i know we'd all love to see it come to life here. for me, it seems like thats where the action happens- its the play that doesnt deal with the aftermath, it deals with what is going on right now (in concern to elliots death and the like) so you dont need any explaining or anything. have you thought of anything for sunlight like the wishes were in stars yet?
