Want to write a play?

Postby Nymphomanic on Thu Dec 01, 2005 12:48 am

Ok. Here's the plan. Six writers, each write a ten minute scene, with two character, set in the same bar. All pieces are tied together by same barman. At end all pieces are tied together.

This is being written for showcase in April, although we need six writers by january 6th (or what you will). We already have three, need three more.

Post here or e-mail hw49.

So let me get this straight-it's basically a play set in a bar with 6 acts as it were, each telling a different story of two characters?

I'm toying with the idea of writing for you, but I'd like to know a bit more about your vision of the project as a whole. What's the background story, the feel you're going for, etc?

That sounds really cool. I'd love to get involved, although I'd like to come up with an idea first. Although I am wondering if I have the time to commit to it.

Hi, Garnet, it's ok that you've not written before, just e-mail anything to hw49.

The barman is separate to the two people but appears in all scenes and ties the play together.

Alex, I'll contact you through facebook with a fuller brief soon.

Tangled up in blue, yes, we are having a meeting, I think 3 o clock, wednesday at the union although this is not confirmed yet.

Louise, I know there's not drama dep, but Lee is sorting out the production side and hopefully finding a director (Andy was metioned although i don't know if he's agreed). Bella has said she'd produce.

If you all post your e-mail addresses I'll e--mail you more details soon, when we have meeting time for sure. We need a script by January 6th, is this ok for all?

Isn't it weird when the signature is longer than the message? This won't be one o' those.
