THEME

The evil of passivity?

In order for evil to triumph...the good simply do nothing.

APPROACH WRITING FULL SCRIPT

Should probably start with historical sources.

Build a timeline

Then read books+Play

MISC GEN APPROACH

Do I merge Dennis Gainey with “Jack” YESY

Reread Treatment

Resist the temptation to say everything you want to say about ireland in one story. Priests/catholics/class politics...just think about what central story is saying.

I Character relationship

Something about Michaels wayward mother..or the fact that their were rumours about his mother could make him want to control Bridget.

OUTLINING/RESEACRH

Approach In writing treatment outline, I got confused between ideas I added and historical record. Use colour coding to distinguish the two.

Need a notes system for research:

Charcater Note Try and write character notes based on testimony.

Historical note.

Plot notes.

⁠

Use eddie Lenahan to tell one of the stories? (He is not an actor, may not be comfortable taking direction/Being Scary)...but you could check they page of Seanachai (remember you probably need a Irish speaker)

Think: If you didn’t know how the story ended..what would interest you? What would keep you watching

HISTORICAL RESEARCH TODO

H

Read more fairy stories: Find a fairy story to start off with...maybe “the nokke” story would have interesting undertones.

Be more specific. Get specific details about the cure and ritual. Need more details of what the cure ceremony involved/ HIGH

Contact local Historical Societies to find court records.

Was there a miscarriage?

Who came first the Priest or the Doctor.

Did anyone call the police?

What was the relationship William and Minnie Simpson to the Clearys? they did visit when Bridget was sick

Timeline Need to clarify who was present on each day

Was Michael actually living in the house at the time? (I’m pretty sure he was but I need the chronology of when they lived apart)...whos house was it.

wikipedia says priest arrives on Fri 15th and a gave her communion. Seems to contradict other sources.

Not sure what Micheals row with the doctor was about (it's mentioned in some sources), since he hadnt given her “Cure” at that point. Possibly about his being a drunk?
