In the room: playwright Coolidge Harris II, 2021 TRU Voices finalist for the play Golden Wings; Tom Polum, co-founder of Streaming Musicals; Jayse, editor at Milliron Studios, a partner of Streaming Musicals; and Janel C. Scarborough, consulting producer.  We'll follow the path of the play from its selection by the TRU Voices Series committee and Zoom presentation to its subsequent full stage production. Coolidge will talk about the pros and cons of being a self-producer, and the relationship he formed with his consulting producer; Janel will address the journey of the play's ultimate connection with the online theater platform Streaming Musicals. From there Tom and Jayse will discuss the process of translating a stage play into a viable film, including the technical aspects and the value of having a filmed version as a marketing tool.
