you have a point... but i'd have a hard time trusting a stage director with the scenery... then again, if it was done right, it does have a lot of potential to be acted out... hm...
That is why you write a scene setting and props page. Look at Wilder, who wrote Our Town and used very little scenery but managed to tell the story. Your characters in this story are already telling it all through thier words.
i was just thinking, actually - and thank you for bringing it to my mind - if i were to take this and make it into a play, it would probably read exactly the same, and how strange that is, to have fiction that theoretically *could* be made into a play just like that, and i kind of liked the idea...
although, on the other hand, there is something so wonderful and true about drama bringing its content so directly to the audience...
I finally read this! Well done and evocative ... except that absolutely none of the kids I knew IRL who would recognize music like that would ever have had the balls to go actually out on an adventure. :-p
