Beginning December 1st, 2010 we will begin to conduct readings of the play at The Swedenborg Library on the campus of Bryn Athyn College. Readings will continue to take place on Wednesday Evenings from 7 to 9 pm in the AV Room.
Anyone interested in helping to mount this play is invited to attend. These meetings are intended to achieve a few different goals. They are production meetings, they are not entertainment for observers. That will come when we present the play to the public. Most importantly, we need to open an ongoing discussion and and action plan regarding the logistical matters pertaining to mounting a presentation of Nunc Licet at the Assembly in June.
We need to build a producing team. It is my distinct opinion that we need to divide the producing duties between three principle producers and a number of Associate Producers. The specifics of that organizational structure will be presented to those persons who would like to serve in the role of producer and will be refined at these meetings by those individuals. In addition, the producers will be responsible for raising money for the production. This is not- Here's the money go do it... rather it's Here's a show, let's get the money, or find ways around it, and do it. We need self-starting, go-getters in order to get this done. There is much to do and we need committed people that everyone can count on. So if that's the type of person you are, then please do get involved.
Certainly, finding the people who can perform is equally important, but without the logistics backing up the performers the effort to produce a crafted piece will be frustrated.
Persons wishing to walk-the-boards are invited to participate, but there will be no promises in that regard. We need people who will not only fulfill the roles, but will do so- well... and will want to continue on with doing the show more than just once or twice.
We have intentions of filming the show and will document the process with video, so we need technical people who are interested in this aspect as well. On the subject of filming- if all works out well, we will want the same performers who work on the stage show to participate in the filming, hopefully at Cairnwood. This will depend on how many people become involved and are serious about helping to make this happen.
Those dedicated persons who do become involved to help get this show up, will become part owners in this show, which is intended to be presented around the world, hopefully on an ongoing basis as both a stage play and a film.
More dialogue will follow ... AG
