Something I learned to do while preparing my new play for its first stage reading is to get more specific with stage directions. This helps the audience imagine the play's potential for a full production. We are 70% funded! Our all-or-nothing Kickstarter fundraiser has 14 days left to reach its minimum goal. Make a pledge to help us cover the costs of our live stage reading [link in bio]. ROAR OF THE GRAIN. @roarofthegrain A new play. Inspired by true events. Written by Satu @saturuna
