Hello All,

I am doing a scheduled and licensed production of DOUBT: A Parable and I am looking for an electronic copy of the script.  If you can help please email me at wilmister@gmail.com.  Thanks!

Cheers

Why yes,

I am the PSM of Is He Dead?, at the Olney Theatre Center.  As Renee mentioned above the change of location between acts one and two need special attention.  The show is not prop heavy just prop specific.  Millet is a real artist who's life is not represented in the play but his works are.  Going into tech the first thing I wanted to accomplish was the QC of Millet from Man to Woman.  This was especially important in figuring out the logistics and also the rigging of the clothing.  Also the actor who plays Basil, Charlie, and the Reporter has 2 QC that are wise to rehearse right off the bat.  Lastly the QC from the Widow Tillou to Millet needs a bit more attention, due to the immense time constraints of that change.  All in all this is avery funny show and little known treasure.  Enjoy!

Look at Boston University, they have a SM program, I know several graduates from the program who are doing very well for themselves.  They become equity very quickly thanks to the Huntington.  They also have an alumni connection that any one would dream to have.  Jim Petosa is the Head of the drama program, if you can get in academically and afford it it is a good bet.

So, I haven't heard much about the Walnut Street theatre but I was wondering how their apprentice program favors in making connection and possibly finding work.  If anyone has ever apprenticed there please post a response of your experience and how it helped you get where you are now.  I am currently an intern at the Olney Theatre cednter in MD and am considering doing this one at the end of this one.  Jess maybe you have a clue??  


Thanks

Well if there was ever a large production to begin on.  Specifically for this show keep track of props where they are going and where they are coming from.  There are oodles.  I would also create an entrance and exit sheet so you know where the multitudes of people are coming from.  I would also setup line rehearsals for the actors.  I am assuming you are doing both parts if that is true Homer, Dr. Larch, and the nurses will need this help especially.  So props, entrances, and lines.  Now it might also be beneficial to start timing the scenes right away there are many costume quick changes especially if one actor is playing many characters.  Enjoy, it is a brilliant play that deserves to be seen over and over agian!

Well.. here is what I did.  March of 2005 I had attended the UPTA's in Memphis and I brought a long with me my prompt book from a previous show I had SM'ed, which was cleaned up and re organized.  I also had brought along a portfolio of forms for SMing that I had created through the years.  Now this worked especially well for in person interviewing because I could explain it all.  Howevedr if I were to mail something I would send a chunk (not originals) of my prompt book in a small portfolio and photos of the production, just a couple.  I would have it in an envelope so if they were to lay it out they could get a grasp of what I had done for the production.  Also you MUST send a return envelope even if they don't ask because it is very helpful to them, even if they don't know it.  So I hope this helps!
