Prompt #24
April 6, 2011
reading about writing about seeing productions

This morning

There were a number of choices of postings on attending performances that got chosen and emailed to me. I've assembled and printed them. I'll divide the class into four or five groups, and give each group a set of the choices to read. Each page includes both the original posting and the explanation by the person who chose it. Read the ones you  have, and discuss them with the group at the table. After we've had a chance to do that we'll do a round of the class to see what patterns we can see -- what sort of thing makes a good (informative, persuasive, engaging) reflection on reading a script? I'll put each posting anybody has anything to say about up on the screen, so we can all see the text and discuss it.

Deadlines upcoming

Because Autobahn opens tonight, the deadline for posting about reading the script is today (specifically, curtain time).

In line with my decision to help people post soon after attending a performance, the deadline for posting on attending Fanshen will be today, and the one for responding to two other people will be Friday.

Transportation

The  wiki for organizing transportation to Saint John for Autobahn is up, and in use. If you're going, have a look.
