Incorporate some of the lessons into warm-ups. I find that studying accents is a great learning tool ...

I've done quite a few productions using Playscripts and I'd say 90% of the time I hear back from them within 48hrs. We just did 2 one-acts through them (one Help Desk by Don Z) and for the most part, everything went smooth.  It was a little laggier during Nov & Dec but and sometimes multiple replies ...

I was sent a very specific line by line list of changes that Neil Simon would allow, ...
