Hey! I have SO many to suggest... DM me if you want to talk more. My all time FAVORITE scene for this- perfect length- so emotionally charged but reserved... Scene 3 of Betrayal" by Harold Pinter... when Emma and Jerry meet at the flat to end the affair. OH! With the exception of one "f" word (which ...

"Is He Dead?" is a fabulous, riotously funny vehicle for a strong male lead. I'm not sure it could be cut to one act...but it is worth looking at. ------------------------------ Michael Limone NY ------------------------------

Hey Theater Ed Friends! Does anyone have any experience with the Musical "Smile"? Pros/ Cons? It was recommended to me for my high school program, but I don't know it at all. Starting with the music and a perusal. Thanks! Michael Limone Carle Place, NY ------------------------------ ...

Hey! My personal favorite is the Richard Wilbur translation. I find the jokes are sharp and concise. When I hear other translations, I miss the Wilbur. Michael Limone Sent from Mail for Windows

When I did this show, we didn't use water. I had a orchestra pit in front of my stage, and we built a "pool deck" around the pit, then dressed the sides of the pit walls to look like the sides of a pool- tiles and all. We put lights in the pit that shined a moving water effect up onto the walls ...

We just finished the Eva Legalliene and Florida Freibus version here at my high school. It is actually the second time that I have done it. Both times I was left feeling unsatisfied. Why did I do it twice? This time I did not direct- I just produced, and I cautioned my director about it... it just feels ...

I'm finding this to be a VERY tough topic. I'm having the same issue, and the girls in my group are struggling with it. I have one or two boys- and they are struggling too. They have all kinds of ideas to entice boys to join that, in my heart, I know won't work. My gut tells me this is a problem ...

Musically, some big differences... We just did Godspell 2012 in March of 2020. All songs are reworked- much more rock and roll than the original- which has more of a folk treatment. "Beautiful City" is not in the original- it does appear in the 2012 (and the movie). All cultural references in ...

Hey- has anyone done the stage version of "Sound of Music"? Concord is saying it only has 4 male roles (and 2 make children). I haven't gotten the perusal yet, but... could that be possible? Can it really be done with 4 males?! Someone please save me time and let me know how this works. I remember ...

Hey Gang! We have decided to mount Clue for our fall show this year. Can anyone give me a run down on the major differences between the original version vs. the High School version? Thanks! ------------------------------ Michael Limone Carle Place NY ------------------------------
