Falcons-3 Phantoms-4
A few days ago I read "Forever in Blue Jeans", that last of three plays written by my cousin (that I know of, he could have more).
It was by far the easiest one to read, though I'm not sure which aspects of it made it seem quicker. I like the twist at the end. So much more towards the "real" end of the spectrum as opposed to the "movie" end. In other words, it wasn't all happy and sunny at the end. I was totally not expecting that.
Of his other two plays, I think Caucus was my favourite. For obvious reasons. Political comedy= The Passion of the Mab. (I have a John Stewart shrine in my closet. Shhh...")
Six on Six was a little confusing because I had trouble imagining the set/blocking. How they plan on playing basketball onstage. I think in the end I decided the "audiencec" watching basketball was facing the audience watching the play. So you never see the court but you can hear the commentary. But then what about in the beginning when they play three on three?
My other theory was to build a platform that could double as the basketball court and the court scene later in the play. It would be on stage throughout the play. Of course, Ive never seen the stage this would be on. That would help a lot.
In 4405 I have the most experience with 30 second costume changes, painting large amounts of sets and (my personal favourite) WASHING CHEAP PAINT BRUSHES! YAAY! *gag*.
I have no idea what I'll be doing in Iowa but I can bet you I'll be REALLY FREAKING COLD the entire time. Yep.
Also, I would like a shoulder-Brandon to tell me when I do something wrong. Because he could tell me anything and I'd still love him just cause he's so adorable.
