Working hard to finish the Ethiopian script, it just seems to crawl along.
I'm also transcribing a stage script which I put together 10 years ago (Oh crap, 10 years? I am soooooo old!) - which exists only as a photocopy of the Stage Managers notes, some scribbled diagrams and a handful of excellent photographs.
My Lead Actor was single but dating at the first read through - by the last night he was pregnant and engaged. I bumped into Mrs Lead Actor a few months ago, and the strapping pre-teen who was conceived one night after rehearsals. So old! So very very old!
Making a stage play is so much quicker than writing a film - you just need a room, some people with excellent memories for movement and language, and lots and lots and lots of gaffer tape. You can do it in a weekend.
I wonder if carrying gaffer tape will speed up the writing?
