All right, folks. Now that I've got a handle on this production thing (mostly, ish, possibly, TRYING!), I'd like to (hopefully) make the productions a little more fun and a bit more crazy.
Part of Geoffrey's canon is that whatever play he's doing reflects on his life. During the first season of Slings & Arrows, they did Hamlet and he had to deal with the ghost of his former director hounding him to finish the production. Second season, MacBeth, with unlucky turns of fate and the actor playing MacBeth trying to start a veritable mutiny of actors vs the director.
You get the jist, yes?
So... I'm wondering: what would you like to do for next production?
MacBeth would include pretty much bad luck striking the production left and right (and, if you like, your characters) at a few turns. I'd challenge you guys to making the production as difficult to stage as possible and you'd be welcome to drive Geoffrey as far up the wall as you like.
Othello would involve Geoffrey having greater and greater trouble keeping himself relatively sane. It might strain some relationships between actors and director (only for those up to it) but hopefully, by the end, end up well. (S&A is a DARK comedy, but it is a comedy; no doom, thanks).
Otherwise, the productions will run the same as usual. Nothing's changing (unless you have a suggestion and feel free to leave it HERE!)
