Either on-line or in-person, on a Saturday afternoon for four hours we'll bring our community of union actors and a director to a new work from our curated submissions. The actors come without rehearsal but loaded with their character ideas and ready to play. Like the first day on set, but book-in-hand, the actors present approximately the first half of the script, moving impulsively, and reacting to the other characters. The Director for the next 45 minutes offers their ideas for character, style, tone, and ideas about climax. The actors take the adjustments and ideas into the reading of the last half of the script. Following that will be a guided Q and A with the writer and all participants. Producers are invited to attend and are a given synopsis and actor/director information in advance of the day.
