On June 23rd and 24th 2004, a group of seasoned actors gathered in New York at the invitation of Danny Glover to read the TOUSSAINT script. The first reading took place in a theatre before a small audience of filmmakers and other artists, and provided the director, writers and other partners in the film to gauge how the script was working. The second reading took place at the home of Anne Hess and Craig Kaplan for an audience of peers, producers, funders and friends of the project. Footage shot during the readings will likely be included in the The Making of TOUSSAINT documentary. In the meantime, we have included some photos from the event here on the Louverture site. |
