What do you think of this as an idea for a play?
Mon, 20 Apr 2009, 02:40 pmHi guys. I'm a writer constantly developing new ideas for stories. This is one I came up with last month and am wondering what you think, whether you think I should pursue it? Here goes... It wants to be a Drama in Three Acts, and it tells the story of two theatre owners from the 'burbs. Katie and Andy are their names. They are husband and wife. Katie is a big deal actor who seems to have it all, but when a real estate agent enters her family's life she realizes that what she really wants. What she has yearned for her whole life is being the tempress leader of a big-deal cult on a property in NSW. That's all I got at this stage. I've got my finger on the pulse and am open to suggestions, so go for it. Let me know what you think?
Wow! Excellent.

New and exciting avenues are opening up in my writing (yes, I've started the play) and inspiration, and that basically means more options for the characters to explore. Primarily though, the idea to perhaps show how Katie begins to relish the power as the leader of a Utopian society and her wanting more and more of that power, and showing how that becomes skewed toward Cult behaviour and authority. There's a certain narrative within that dialogue that has the potential to interest audiences, I think.
And there's plenty more here to explore...
What can I say, you're a writer, you know how it feels to be really excited by an idea.
