Subject: Reminder/Incitation to attend OPP weekily meeting, 3-18-24
Old Pueblo Playwrights cordially invitee you to attend their weekly meeting Monday, March 18 beginning at 7 pm. This will be a hybrid meeting with some joining via zoom (link below) and others will attend in person in room 50 at St. Francis in the Foothills MCC. ( campus map).
NO PLAY READING IS SCHEDULED FOR THIS MEETING
AGENDA: Basic business meeting.
RE: New Play Festival 2024
Clarification, commiseration, candid cooperation, careful negotiation, and kindliness please, as we discuss the ins and outs of presenting a two weekend play festival in a less than ideal venue with limited availability, resources, scaffolding, and manpower.
Directors are urged to consider not being prima donnas.
We must bear in mind that this is a staged reading festival. No final production values are required or expected. This is not a competition. We can't have all the lighting specials or alternate stagings we may desire. We are all in this together. Past festivals at Tucson Mall allowed no stage alterations and we fared well with three to eleven people on a tiny stage at once.
As a past festival coordinator I speak from experience. We should have one stage configuration, one lighting set up usable for all plays, and all adapt to those parameters. Period, okay?
(enough ranting from Zink)
