Zach wants separate applications
director/writer application - they can indicate their preference
Writer can say if they’re interested in a co writers
Then producer, TD, SM applications
There can be co-writers
Isa will develop a draft interest form
Requiring written check-ins every week throughout the process, then have one person from the team coming into board once rehearsals start
OR invite them to come into board because it’ll be zoom and they can just call in
Writer’s power: will it change after the script is finalized? How much power will they have over the rehearsal process and actors? Can they change the script once rehearsals start?
There has to be a final point by which the script cannot be changed
They shouldn’t have equal power to the director
Guest director at the initial read through/first rehearsal, can share thoughts with director & actors, but after that point they pass the power over to director & their script must be finalized
Becomes a supportive role after finalized script
Division of power that changes when they go into the rehearsal room
Isa will draft this division of power
SM’s power → how can we better support our SM’s?
