Discover The Play You Wrote With William Roudebush
by Cindi Verbelun 26 Jun '22

26 Jun '22

DISCOVER THE PLAY YOU WROTE with WILLIAM ROUDEBUSH YOU WROTE A PLAY You want to get it done. BUT YOU’RE STUCK I have extensive experience in play development and production. Reference: williamroudebush.com LET ME GET YOU UNSTUCK Our process will begin with sending me your script along with some kind of statement that relates to WHY YOU ARE STUCK. I will then read and send you detailed written notes about your script, on your script, and then follow up with a ZOOM call to talk everything through. The fee for this initial service is $200 and then $150 for every draft after that. In addition, when the play gets to a point where it is ready to share with the public, I can organize a ZOOM reading followed by a Q & A or feedback in any form you desire. This is all about helping you DISCOVER THE PLAY YOU WROTE TO BEGIN: Contact me at: roudebushwilliam(a)gmail.com or on my website: williamroudebush.com TESTIMONIALS “William Roudebush is a Dramaturge/Director like no one else I have ever known. He completely absorbs your play and finds the very heart of it. It is because of his work with me that one of my scripts was optioned, for which I received substantial payment.” Matthew Ethan Davis, Playwright “Mr. Roudebush has directed five plays of mine, and his uncanny nose for truth, his unfailing B.S. detector, combined with his inventive stagecraft, improved what was originally on the page. He is my theatre sherpa. William Mastrosimone, Playwright “Bill was able to give concrete specific suggestions about my play which showed me he was working from inside the play. He was interested in bringing what I had written to the fullest expression possible.” Tony DiMurro, Playwright “I was an actor in a new play by John Wolfson called THE LIVES OF BOSIE. It was, is, a striking play, and Bill did a fantastic job helping John Wolfson reshape his script for maximum impact. The play went on to win the BARRYMORE AWARD in Philadelphia that year. Bill’s work on the script, in other words, was literally award-winning. So Bill as a play doctor and Bill as a director of actors: in both of these capacities he shines. Austin Pendleton, Playwright, Actor, Director “Bill was helpful in my creating characters that had legs to compelling turn arounds for them. He also knows, quite well, what to cut and what to leave in. I grew as a writer by his coaching; I highly recommend him. Robert L. ONeill, Artist, Writer, Actor Sent from my iPhone

Reminder: Workshop Players seeking directors for 2023-24 season
by Workshop Players 26 Jun '22

26 Jun '22

June 2022 The purpose of this letter is to recruit directors for Workshop Players’ 2023-2024 season. We are striving to get back to a sense of normalcy after the pandemic. The 2022-2023 season is set with a limited number of shows and several fund raisers. By the fall of 2023 it is our intention to return to a full five show slate. To that end we are hoping that you may be interested in submitting an application along with a list of plays you may be interested in directing. *The deadline for applying is August 1, 2022.* *Please submit to Play Reading Committee Chair Pat Price at * joeandpatprice(a)centurytel.net *if you have not directed with us before, please include a theatrical resume. **Submit 4-5 plays that you would be interested in directing at Workshop, along with synopsis of the play (*may be copied and pasted from licensing agent)*.* *** *Give a brief summary of why you believe the play would be eﬀective in our unique theater-in-the-round space. **Please be prepared to have at least one copy of each script available for the play reading committee should you be selected as one of the directors.* Workshop Players Theater is a non profit, fully volunteer theater. It is the longest running theater-in-the-round in Ohio (minus the pandemic break). We have a strong following in the surrounding community and hope that you would like to be part of our theatre family. Submitting directors may be interviewed by the Board of Trustees in August. Due to the cost of production Workshop Players would do no more than one musical in a season, so if submitting musicals also include some straight plays to increase your chance of being chosen to direct. Be aware that our backstage space is very limited, making massive scene changes diﬃcult. Workshop enjoys producing plays for children and adults alike, musicals, comedies, and dramas —- and we will strive to put together a balanced season based on what is submitted to us. Thank you for your interest in our theater. Pat Price Play Reading Committee Chair Workshop Players Theater Amherst, OH 44001 -- Workshop Players 44820 Middle Ridge Road, Amherst, OH 44001 Box Office: 440-634-0472 (Box Office hours: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.) Find us on Facebook!
