Act 2??

by Vance Smith, director

I spent about three hours at my desk on Friday re-staging Act 2 and came in to day (Saturday the 23rd) hoping it will work.  And it does!!  Not only does the blocking no longer look terrible, but certain sections of the script actually make more sense now that they have been staged properly.  Huh.  It took all day to get it right, but now we are in very good shape for the reading on Monday. 

After all the talk on this blog about Act 2, the future of the intermission is now in question.  The play looks like it will clock in at about 80 minutes without an intermission, so Steve and I have decided to present it on Monday as a one act, and then talk about whether there should be an intermission with the audience.  So while there may still be an Act2 in the future, for now it shall be affectionately referred to as Scene 6.
