Director's Round Table: Taking the Hell Out of Hell Week
The Colonial Players, Inc. 108 East Street, Annapolis, Maryland 21401
The Directors' Round Table Series is designed as a forum where directors with all levels of experience (well-seasoned to novice or prospective) can meet in a less-formal setting to share their insight and suggestions. Each event will be held in a more social setting near the theatre and will have a specific theme and facilitator. These events are free, however, we ask that you email Scott Nichols (education@thecolonialplayers.org) so that we will know an approximate number of attendees for each.
This session will be on Tuesday, May 9 at 7 p.m. and will include the following topics: Time management--dealing with logistics before tech week (time with designers, tech vs. actors), Dry tech is your friend! (Communicating effectively with designers/technicians), Challenges of cue-to-cue, When it is appropriate to stop a run-through (train wrecks vs. taking a note), The “Pep talk” to cast and crew, When to let go (and when to still be available for guidance).
All sessions will take place at Harry Browne's. Sessions are free, but please RSVP to education@thecolonialplayers.org if you plan to attend.
