A good storyline is like a trail winding its way through the mountains, a course chartered on the open sea...there are peaks and valleys, curves and swells, rough, turbulent waters and calm, glassy seas...

and when extremely well written and timed, it is surprisingly unexpected and exciting with each new twist and turn until it ultimately delivers you to your destination unforgettably changed.

Setting....nothing is more exhilarating for an audience or a group of actors than to journey together to another time and another place that comes alive through magnificent set design that makes everyone believe they have embarked on an adventure in a specific time period and location.
