I was in Indianapolis all weekend, working hard on that still-untitled play by Jennifer Fawcett. Jennifer and I convened in Indy because it's something of a half-way point between here and Iowa, where she's a grad student in their Playwrights' Workshop.

Friday and Saturday involved no-stop, all day, bang-your-head against the wall work on the script. It's hard to explain precisely what we were doing - some editting, some reworking, Jenn did a good bit of rewriting on some scenes. "Tightening it up" is an oft-used expression. Although I do believe in some cases we were loosening it.

At any rate, it's still an amazing and beautiful play and Jenn's a hell of a writer, and I can't wait until we produce this bad boy and share it with the world.

It seems the next stop will be a series of readings to workshop the play next month. Stay tuned, as this will probably culminate in a public performance of some type.
