Stuff to remember before I forget. The Girl Who Wanted to do Something Big. 8220;The Girl” Catching Fire. April 11, 2015. I pushed “publish”. Maybe “The Girl” would catch fire. Sheepish phone call home. Suzanne came to rescue me. By the time I went to bed, “The Girl” hadn’t broken 500. Part of me slaps me around and says, dude, that’s all the people that would watch it? With the click of their finger? Did you know that the “What the fox says” video has a half a billion views? Amen, second self. Three Day...

Stuff to remember before I forget. Tonight the Curtain Falls (Except There is no Curtain). June 27, 2015. The curtain falls on this lovely lot tonight. There was a moment. 8212; and I’m beginning to suspect this moment occurs in most productions — when we were deep into the nightly rehearsal process and all the fatigue that entails, and I did the math about what still needed to be done relative to the available time we had left, and the production calculator spat out the result:.

De-compleating Incompleat | Notes to Self
https://dennisagle.wordpress.com/2015/04/18/de-compleating-incompleat
Stuff to remember before I forget. April 18, 2015. Clearly my selfie skills need work, but here are the wonderful souls who were our Workshop #1 participants. There’s a certain comfortable companionship. One acquires with one’s own unproduced work. I have a stack of them. Each was born of high hopes, labored on for a good chunk of my life, pitched to the four corners, before eventually returning like a prodigal to live in the basement, which in my case is a shelf in the closet of my study. 8221; moments,...

(E2, Brute? Before our first workshop,. Our generous troupe of actors had homework: to read through the script and share with the writer their top three notes. Some did. Some did much more. I compiled them all into a categorized list, which we discussed after our first full read-through. Style Perhaps we could in...

Provo, Utah: New Play Hot Spot? | Notes to Self
https://dennisagle.wordpress.com/2015/06/20/provo-utah-new-play-hot-spot
Stuff to remember before I forget. Provo, Utah: New Play Hot Spot? June 20, 2015. Last night, just before the house was opened. To the audience for the third in our seven-show run, I was on stage with the actors working through a few tweaks to the final scene. We’ve been doing such tweaks just before each show. Little touches here and there that keep making the show about 2% better each night. It’s a cool dynamic of a play that you don’t really get after you release a movie. I’m hopeful the Echo Th...
