Question 136

A script for several voices

An original notice for an invented play-reading session.

No stage, costumes or memorised lines are needed for our next play-reading afternoon. We will sit around a table with copies of a short comic script. Readers can swap parts between scenes, and anyone who would rather listen is welcome to stay for the whole session.

The organiser will circulate the cast list before we begin. Please tell her if you would prefer a part with fewer lines. There is no requirement to perform an accent or invent a character's movements. This is a chance to hear how the conversation changes when different people speak the words, rather than an audition for a later production.

In the notice, explain the meaning of “circulate the cast list”.
