I can see that the process of selecting scenes will not be an easy
one, since all or most of you have different beginning points
(concepts, approaches) for recommending them. I've read a couple of
very interesting conceptual approaches which even offer a structure.
I would be tempted to adopt one of those, with minor adjustment, and
go with it. On the other hand, I am tempted to consider scenes you
have suggested independent of concept or your approach to
orchestrating the performance, not really worried about how things fit
together. And I do think that getting everyone fully involved in the
procession is important and as well the time element. Some of the
scenes suggested are in the 250-400 line category. Some, perhaps too
many, involve two-four principals.
At this late date, I think it is too late to be offering another
approach, scene, concept. You have much to work with and to share and
I hope your discussions are alive with sharing and with the prospect
of playing everything out as one.
