The purpose of this wiki site is to write a pantomime script together. Currently all we have is a concept and the loose story The Wizard if Oz. A plot is the first task and then breaking that into a list of scenes. The site is fully editable by any one who joins.
What is a wiki site?
See the link above the word "welcome" for a better explanation, basically it's a website with content anyone can edit or add to. You need only minuscule amount of computer experience. just find some content and when you feel like you contribute click the "edit" button at the bottom of the page.
Those who are new to this wiki idea should be aware that you need to be a) nice and calm b) bold! If you think something is totally wrong then remove it and replace it. If someone does this to "your stuff" then be nice and calm, you can always ask to put it back in. Thats what the discussion pages are for.
What is a Pantomime? idea see Wikipedia Pantomime article (the most famous wiki site)
The concept is still lose, feel free to make suggestions in the forum. There is no reason why this should work and some people have made it clear that they will write anything but never a pantomime. This will be a fun thing to fail at…. or a real buzz to succeed at.
When you're ready get over to the explore the site (link on side bar) and help create a brilliantly funny script for The Wizard of Oz. There is no longer a copyright on the original book (since 1956), but a recent book has a new take on it, try not to infringe upon this newer version.
The original book is available to download or have it emailed to you a page a day at http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/55
Please Don't be scared to rewrite, delete, move, add or change anything. We keep back-ups.
