Mango Roses

Today, we discussed the scenes we had written the night before. Shirley had written scene 2 and I had written scene 3. The script consultant, James Macgruder, started correcting the parts and added to what he thought was needed. Mary Ann, the music composer, had written two songs for the scenes 1 and 6. We mainly talked about how to present the story and the scripts and it was quite difficult because they wanted to change most of the parts, I had written into a song. They still aren't sure but I have to finish writing scene 5 today and the rest will continue over the next few days as we complete the script. The writing part is fun and quite easy, all I have to do is picture the scene, consider the characters of the play and see how it plays out and what they would say to each other. It's rather hurried but enjoyable. The most frustrating part is the uncertainty of whether half your scene will be cut out. All in all, this is a very new experience and it has shown me another side of what I can do and accomplish.
