    Bonjour everybody, so I really love theatre… I mean, aside from the fact that you’re making yourself vulnerable for people to see and criticize and have to remember lines, it’s like living in an entirely different world and being an entirely different person!!

    I’m also a person who gets smacked with new and enticing plot bunnies about once or twice a week when I’m trying to go to bed, and sometimes one is especially tantalizing. But since I have absolutely no time or energy most days to chase it down and record it in a novel/novella form, I don’t follow these lovely fluffy creations to wherever the hop off to.

    About a couple months or so ago, I got smacked with a really interesting story idea, followed it a few scenes through in my head and then ranted it out to a fellow theatre geek and decided it might make a great stage script. Well, about 35 pages later (literal pen and paper pages later), I have realized that I know nothing about writing a gripping script! I wondered if anybody on here might know a thing or two about the process, so here we are. This is the time and the place for any theatre peeps to spill their knowledge nuggets. 😉

    Thank you!

    Au revoir!
