Elliot and Finnegan's Zebra Adventure

So far the highlight of this whole process happened last night. After printing up some revised pages (blue pages for those of you who might be keeping track of such things), Elliot - my five year-old son - said he wanted to write a script. I asked him what he wanted to write it about and he said 'zebras.' So, with very little help from Dad, he told me what to write and and together we wrote a 2 1/2 page script called, "Elliot and Finnegan's Zebra Adventure." Three of our actors were coming to my house to rehearse and they read the script out loud for Elliot, who noticed that Jack ad-libbed a line. A great moment for Elliot and me, to be sure.

I'm still trying to figure out how to post the script on this site, though I'm sure Elliot already knows how to do it.

Oh, and we had a really great rehearsal, too.
