| SEASON PLANNING TERROR

It's that time of year when everyone enjoys themselves at parties and stops thinking about work, right?
Wrong.
It's that time of year that I start realizing every other Artistic Director in town is well ahead of me in the season planning game!
A pile of 20 scripts sits on my desk begging to be considered for production, and there's never enough time in the day to read them. I know the rough contours of our 08-09 season, and even a couple of titles, but we're far from decided. It's looking like we'll start the season with a world premiere version of a British script we've been working on for a while (and it's a comedy!), followed by a Chicago-area premiere hot from off-Broadway. I'm holding the February-March slot for another potential world premiere, and then I'm thinking of a mid-century classic for the spring - Tennessee Williams? Eugene O'Neill? That depends on the availability of artists, who are all playing the game of trying to decide whether they should take this job or that one...
Let me know what you'd like to see at Next in 2008-09!
