For our blog this time, I want you to comment on the fall play, And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. A lot of you have expressed surprise that it takes as much work as it does to create a play. For me, the thinking and the creativity behind a piece like the fall play is what makes theater so interesting. I want to be able to think deeply and carefully about a piece so that the audience understands the message I'm trying to communicate.

I'm always impressed with your good thinking on these issues. Tell me...what surprised you the most about the fall play and our discussions about it? Additionally, I want you to think deeply about what you want to say in a play. If you had one message that you could get across in a play, what would it be? What do you think the world needs to hear?

I can't wait to read what you're thinking.
