This one is wide open. However, we don’t want any set changes. So, the bench is the only set piece allowed. The bench cannot be moved during the evening’s performance unless it is moved by characters during a play and then moved back before the play is over. It cannot be moved to different positions for every play. It will sit on the stage facing the audience. Characters will be able to move behind and around it. Other set pieces and props can be used only if they are brought to the stage by a character during the play as part of the play’s story and then removed by a character or characters before the play is over.
There will be no need to strike the set after any play.
A good 10 minute play is quite often between 8 to 12 pages typed.
For those who don’t know the bench made its way over to Scene One after portraying a bench at a train station in TLT’s production of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF.
