Stage Play
« on: December 01, 2011, 03:09 PM »
In lieu of doing a NANY app this year, I am writing a stage play ("A Sweet Christmas Tragedy") which will be performed Dec. 24th.  Nothing big (script is only about 150-180 pages), just an offering to the retirement community where my Mom lives.  A good many of them have nowhere else to go on Christmas, so we thought we would bring something to them.  If anyone is interested in reading the script, PM me and I will send a link when it is completed.  I am using CELTX to write the scripts, storyboards, etc.

Anyone else a playwright?

Hi, SJ,

It's been a rough ride, but I'm not defeated nor down.  I'm just having to restart all the things I used to be into.  :)

So you're getting back to normal-ish, this is good. I've been thinking about you a bit lately and was trying to find the time to put together an email...

Glad to see you back!

@CT - like Stoic says: Glad to see you back!

re: Play

Love to read it if you don't mind. Always interested in whatever creative endeavors a fellow DCer gets up to. Probably the main reason why I like this place so much. We're all computer/software geeks, it's true. But we're also so much more than that. Makes for some interesting conversations and debates!

I also use Celtx btw. I have to give them credit, this last iteration really did the trick. Maybe it's not quite up to FinalDraft in a few places yet. But it's so close that it doesn't really matter. It's a completely functional and usable script writing tool. I find I prefer it to most other alternatives.

Nice to hear from you, CodeTRUCKER!  Congratulations on the play!  That must have been quite an undertaking!
