Dear Fellow Winedale Weeklongians,
On behalf of Doc and the Committee of Cheerleaders, I hereby emit a big Go,
Team, Go!
We would like to get the whole scenes-choosing and role-casting process
done and roles disseminated by June 6, when the first session of Camp
Shakespeare begins and Doc will be all-consumed by it. To meet that
deadline, we must strictly adhere to the ones leading up to it.
Attached is the revised master list of scenes I sent you a few days ago. A
a few people weighed in with a more ideas. Also, Robert Jackson, please
forgive me for not including your list of scenes the first time around. It
and newer material is now included and marked in *bold-face type.
*
Here is the process just ahead:
*By Midnight, MAY 31: Send your top ten scenes to
alicegordon(a)earthlink.net.* (I will immediately forward all lists to Doc
and the Committee. Just trying to give everyone only one email address to
type in.) Considering the themes we’ve all been talking about, please send
us your top ten scenes *from the complete list.* Feel free either to
cherry-pick from the list; to vote for one of the concepts sketched out or
fully fledged by Gail, Robert P, Robert J, or Matt; or to choose both
concept and scenes to make your own list. (If I have overlooked other
concepts since the whole group has been talking, please remind us all as
soon as you can). Kathy and Jayne’s and Clayton’s proposals seem ways and
examples of how to approach any group of scenes once we’re at Winedale, and
feel free to state your support or comments about such approaches as well.
Our sense is that a lot of us are excited about what they are suggesting.
Please keep in mind the time limit we’ve set forth and the number of
participants in each scene. Doc urges us to favor ensemble scenes (six or
more characters) in the balance, and also to balance longer and shorter
scenes. Remember there will be weekenders and audience pop-ups with whom we
will share the matinee.
*By June 2: Doc and Committee come up with final list of scenes.* The
committee and Doc will look at the preferences mathematically, see what
rises to the top, and then work out the final choices by considering
ensemble or what works better or what’s more appropriate for the context.
Once we have the final list, it will be sent out to everybody. Please keep
an eye on your email inbox that day.
*By June 3: Your requests or preferences, if any. *When you get that list,
please let us know if you have very special preferences for roles you would
like to play or scenes you would like to take part in. Once we get that
information, we’ll have at the casting.
*June 5: Deadline for roles to be cast.
June 6: List of roles sent to whole group.
*
Courage! This will mean a fast week-plus coming up.
Make your best haste,
All best wishes,
Alice
