Citadel is hosting all the rehearsals for readings. He's hoping the Citadel's play development activities will increase their profile thanks to their participation in these events. Vern's burning issues: 1. How do we raise private and corporate sponsorship for new play development? He feels there's abetter understanding of what we do inside his theatre. But communicating the value of new playdevelopment is difficult. He'd love some tips.2. The Citadel has lots of commissions - 10 plays. Do you just keep commissioning or do youfocus on development? It's a philosophical question.Ken Cameron is excited by On The Verge and by the shape of the upcoming year at Alberta Playwrights Network because the company is financially stable at last and Ken will be doing things twice in the same way, which will be new for him at this job. His burning issue is how to find the time to read those plays, of which there are many more this year. Martin Kinch is excited because people are talking to each other within his organization. Now they have a bi-weekly group meeting at which his contracted dramaturgs discuss the plays. The new play festival is May 5 - 16, 2004. Stay tuned for the announcement of plays.
