Just finished about six solid hours of writing/editing/conceiving work on Spell, with another hour or two spread out earlier in the day. Feels good. Sent off the 22 pages of material I now have to the cast, to give them something to look at and think about at this point. Here's the first page of what I sent: I. Opening – swinging lamp over ANN as she sings “Couldn’t Hear Nobody Pray,” stopped by 2 JANE, then buzzer, siren, explosion and screams. II. First Interview – same dialogue done four times between ANN and 1 JANE/2 JANE from different perspectives. III. Light Bulb Discussion IV. The Bedtime Ritual (with diagnosis speech from 2 JANE) – midshow relaxation/expansion V. The Firing Squad Dream Sequence (relates to following sequence listed – “Piggies”) VI. The Witches or Fragments Become Manson Girls VII. ANN as Patty Hearst as “Tania” (connect to Che Guevara’s “Tania”?) VIII. ANDY’s revolutionary speech (with James Brown cape routine) IX. The introduction of the FRAGMENTS and their positions X. The MAN and FRAG 1 XI. The MAN and FRAG 2 XII. The MAN and FRAG 3 (includes stereotyped “chasing the secretary round the desk” sequence, set to “Yakety Sax” – 1 JANE makes ANN back up and tell the story “right”) XIII. The Male Gaze lecture – ANN lines up the women downstage – the men gather upstage to be manly and laugh together XIV. WITCH 1 spell sequence XV. WITCH 2 spell sequence XVI. WITCH 3 spell sequence XVII. ANN and 1 JANE/2 JANE discussion – Cuba XVIII. ANN and 1 JANE/2 JANE discussion – Palestine XIX. ANN and 1 JANE/2 JANE discussion – China XX. ANN and ANDY on trains, travel, and getting to know the country XXI. Finale – ANN accepts her actions – exit – “Just Another Day” When I have some that excerpts well, I'll put it up. So, a couple of good ass-kicking images that brightened my day . . . first, from LP Cover Lover, a man who kicks arse for the LORD! And from Photo Basement, Batman kicks ass because he's full of PAIN! And in video land, this young man's "Pyro System" could kick someone's ass, maybe his own . . . And the Mean Kitty is just ass-kicking mean . . . Enjoy.

Yeah, I know - it hadn't occurred to me that she was reprising a character name from your Doctors Jane and Alexander until it was pointed out to me at the first meeting. On top of it, we also have Fred Backus and Jorge Cordova from that show here, too, and in positions not too dissimilar (physically) from their positions in that show (lots of sitting and standing around desks, being psychologically examined). Completely unconscious, I assure you . . . |
