ISSUE 29: REMAKING AND RE-STAGING. HOW TO MAKE IT AS BIG AN ADVENTURE THE SECOND TIME AROUND?

Issue: Remaking and restaging. How to make it as big an adventure the second time around?

Convener(s): Annie Rigby

Participants: Malcolm Rippeth, Simon Wilkinson, Cath Eaglestone, Helen Pringle, Liz Porter, Adam Barnard


Summary of discussion, conclusions and/or recommendations:

Advice:
*Know what want you want to find out by remaking a show.

*The structures and decisions you made the first time round are valuable. They are your new starting point.

*Be brave about changing the ‘good bits’, as well as working on the ‘bad bits’.

*Keep fiddling with it. Don’t attempt to make a carbon copy. It’s impossible.

*The fact you’re worrying about it at all is a good sign.

Reply:
Thank you. I’m feeling much better now.
