Question..

My elective for high school this year is Theatre Arts, and currently my friend and I have to do a scene from a play called LOOSE ENDS. I play Seline and she plays Susan. What can you tell me about it?

Aw, come on. There has to be someone out there who knows about it!

re: Question..

You bumped your topic after three minutes? Come on, patience my friend.

Plus... if you're supposed to do a scene from that play, didn't your teacher or someone give you the script? What exactly do you need to know, besides "anything"?

re: Question..

Sorry, but it's been too long since I saw it to be of any help to you. I remember that it dealt with relationships and there were arguments over having children. I know Kevin Kline was in the Broadway production and I saw a college production of it in the mid-80s that was OK -- and I haven't thought about it since. It used to be done by amateur and college groups constantly during the 80s, but you rarely see it any more (I wonder if its dated like the playwright's other play "Moonchildren"). Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

re: Question..

I saw it in the original production at Circle in the Square and liked it. I can't remember the character names. We're talking 25+ years.

The play itself follows a relationship of a couple who meet on a tropical beach and follows then through the next few years (5-8?) as they marry and evolve and evolve apart. The climactic scene is emotionally draining. I think the play is a fairly straightforward read. Most of what you need to know ought to be on the page.

It starred Kevin Kline and Jay O. Saunders and Jodi Long were featured. I cannot remember the original leading lady's name, but she was replaced by an unknown named Christine Lahti.

re: Question..

I was going to comment as well on your username. So deliciously suggestive while at the same time being deliciously mainstream. It's just delicious, I mean to say.

No problem. I now understand why you did not find anything. You used msn, a product of Microsoft, so it was bound not to work properly. :->

Now now...it isn't just Microsoft that can't put together a proper search engine. In the caveman days before Google, none of the search engines were all that good.

re: Question..

There's a pair that's doing said "emotionaly draining" scene in my acting class... it's a good play... interesting and challanging... good luck! Find a script and make sure you know the whole story, mostly because it's fun and interesting :)

re: Question..

If you have to do something from a certain play you need to buy the play and learn everything about it - the time period, where in the world it takes place, what was going on in that place during those years, everything - you can't do a successful job without reading and tearing apart the play. Isn't that obvious?
