Hey girls,

Have any of you thought about the 3 websites you would like to evaluate? I am going to figure out my 3 and let you know in case it is one of yours. If that is the case, I will find another one to evaluate.

Putting on the play

I love your ideas for the how to write a play concept map, we should also have a bubble for what to and how to put on the play

Ideas include:

Auditions
Venue
Costumes
Props
Scenery
Budget
Date and time
Extras (helpers/volunteers)
Programs/Recognition
How do we get people to hear about it?

I think we are fairly set on a very simple and basic idea of what our concept needs to be and of course we can refine the next round.

All we need to know now is who is going to fill out the concept map and what program do we use for the mapping.

How to get started and what to possibly include

I researched what exactly we may need and want to include when it comes to writing a play as I have never written one before.  Some are pretty obvious, but there are a few terms that I just learned about.  They include the following:
-Character
-Dialogue
-Conflict
-Scene
-Stage Directions: messages from the playwright to the actors, technicians, and others in the theatre telling them what to do and how to do it.
-Setting
-Biography: Characters life story that a playwright creates.
-Monolgue
-Dramatic Action:an explanation of what the characters are trying to do.
-Beat: a smaller section of a scene, divided where a shift in emotion or topic occurs.
-Plot: the structure of a play, including exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and denouement.
-Exposition: the beginning part of a plot that provides important background information.
-Rising Action:the middle part of a plot, consisting of complications and discoveries that create conflict.
-Climax:the turning point in a plot.

I have been brainstorming a little, but may have one or maybe to decent ideas.
