24 Hour Project

So the 24 Hour Project has officially begun. At 8pm, the playwrights were given their assigned group which includes their image, a director and three actors. Each of the actors had mini-auditions for the playwrights and then went along their merry way, but will return at 9am.
Throughout the first three hours Majel and I have noticed many interesting things about the playwrights.
  • The guys, James Dunn and Jacob Juntunen, each took their own room and have taken advantage of the dry-erase boards.
  • The ladies, Gen Thompson and Marisa Wegrzyn, chose a room together.
  • Most, if not all, of them are listening to music.
  • Gen has come to us with random questions.
  • James has gone all the way downstairs and outside for several cigarette breaks.
  • Marisa has gone to our prop table to see what is there.
  • Before even beginning Jacob changed into comfy slippers.
In the performance space, Majel and I have ben trying to figure out how best to displace the images that will shown before each piece. I think we finally came up with a solution. diane arrived to start setting up all of the tech for the day so that it is all set before rehearsals are set to begin at 9am.

for now this is all. In the coming hours, we will return with comments on the day and will hopefully have the artists give a couple thoughts of their own. See you all in a bit.

Joey and Majel
