I thought those who've joined the forum in more recent months might like to have a little background on the Phenomenal Forum Follies (alliteration here by sound, if not spelling)
This post is just a jumping off place for others to contribute to.
.... Now, about the word "undulating" which appears very regularly in the scripts (notice I did not say "plots" as these seem to be optional.)
This started with our very first follies, before it was the follies. A wonderful little production started by Glen on 25 July, 09. The thread title is Robin Hood, and its well worth searching for. Maybe Al can transfer it over to this forum, I tried to copy the link but it didn't work
Here is an excerpt:
{Glen} Hmmm ... where in this script does it say that Rose would be under Beth in the study ? This is Robin Hood , not a clue board game. But the mental picture isn't all that bad. Does undulating happen here ?
{Beth} Undulating happens everywhere, Glen.
Then.... why, oh why, is Zaphoon, who's given name actually is Kim, referred to as PZ? ...Well, I've searched trying to find where it started, and it eludes me. Best as I recall, Zaphoon mentioned a physical he'd had, Lydia took it to mean a "Physical Zaphoon" and she proceeded to ask what a physical zaphoon was, and somehow that got shortened to just PZ. If someone else remembers better, please make sure to post it.
