Recent developments.

So… since my first post we have now gone on to cast the performance, chosen a section to work on for this module and begun the re-writing and contemporising of the script.
The cast now stands as:

Leonce – James

Lena – Charlotte

Valerie (Valerio) – Ashton

Rosetta – Jenn

King Peter – Thomas

Florence (Lena’s mother) – Hayley

We have also formed the basis of how we intend to contemporise the play text. The play will be set in Las Vegas, with the two lovers’ arranged marriage being the result of a lost bet at the poker table. We have also made the decision to re-cast Valerio as a female – now Valerie – as we have developed comedic plotlines surrounding her relationship with Leonce. Similarly we are adapting and increasing the role of Rosetta, in the complex interlinking relationships of the characters.

In the coming week the script should be on it’s way to being finished and we will begin getting our chosen section up on it’s feet. Hopefully we shall soon be bringing some intial costume, sound etc ideas, to the blog.

Until then…
Hayley.
