More readthroughs!

[wildeabandon]

I was pretty pleased with how the online LLL readthrough went on Saturday, and plan to continue organising similar things.

I've been wondering about good things to do where the scripts are available free online, and have just discovered BBC Writers Room where a bunch of radio, TV and film scripts are available to the general public. Things that have jumped out at me so far are Stardust and How the Marquis Got His Coat Back, based on Neil Gaiman book, Gentleman Jack, which I haven't actually gotten round to watching yet, and The King's Coiner - the true story of Isaac Newton, Detective, which sounds awesome. But there's loads of stuff on there, so if anyone else fancies having a trawl and making suggestions that would be fabulous.

Thank you so much for hosting!

Ooo that's a brilliant resource - thank you. (Even though i'm prolly too dyslexic for a group readthrough - my brain often decides that understanding written words and speaking them at the same time is excessive multitasking!)

If you’re doing Stardust, I should probably still have the script from when we did it at Ardgour, which might be even more readthrough friendly than the straight film script (I vaguely remember narrating it up a bit.)

The one they have is a radio play version, so already has narration added :)

Gentleman Jack is great :)

I would love to participate in a one of these.
