One of the fun things about putting a play on in a large organization is
getting a script approved. Sometimes you have to go through several
layers of ‘notes’ that recommend this word be changed or this concept
is unclear or there isn’t enough action going on. Now any screenwriter
will tell you that you haven’t seen anything until you go corporate
Hollywood rewrites (all with or without payment). I didn’t have a
difficult time. Most of the changes were for the better.
It really is best to have someone read over what you want to present
anyway, if only to share the blame if there is a backlash for something
too avant garde. Take suggestions prayerfully and usually things
will go well. If you know your research and story well enough, you might
be able to convince the others that this or that element is integral to
the story. So do your homework.
