Magic Hate Ball posted:Anyone know anything about The Exonerated? I'm supposed to be crewing it in a couple months. It's one of those boring-rear end staged-reading plays. Unless your production makes a lot of changes it's probably the easiest thing to crew ever.

The Pillowman posted:So, my university might put on "The Laramie Project" next semester (read that to mean I'll be directing it or designing it). And we might also be doing "Noises Off!". Now I know what both are, kind of, and I'm waiting for them in the mail so I can read them. Just wondering what opinions were, if you guys had done either show and had stories, advice, and general knowledge? I was in Noises Off once in summer stock. It's bland and pleasant enough. It can actually be pretty funny if you have a good cast. If you've never directed or designed a farce before, you're going to need to do some research on that. Farces live and die by the set, and the acting style generally needs to be a little more pantomime than modern actors try for. Also, I read Black Comedy when I was hanging out in a theater reading through their stack of old plays as a youth. Memories...
