"Nunc Licet" was presented with some success at
The 2011 World Assembly of The New Church
For the advancement of the play, I offer the most recent edition of
entire script of Nunc Licet for your review.
An assessment of the presentation at the Assembly;
During the Assembly, we drastically edited the script reducing the size and eliminating much of the subplot elements in order to fit it into the one hour time frame. We felt that since we were addressing a New Church audience, that certain points in the play did not need to be dealt with, since most of our audience already had a foundational knowledge of who Swedenborg was. In addition we were limited in our rehearsal time and production values, so a significant number of subplot elements were removed. I was not too please about needing to do this, but it had to be done. You will note that the script provided here for your review has all of the staging instructions included. When I removed the assorted descriptions, instructions and the directions to the actors, leaving only the lines to be spoken, the script is reduced to 126 pages (with some of that material removed simply by crossing it out bringing it down close to 100 pages double spaced). So here is the unedited script for your review.

I do expect that we will present another reading in the beginning of 2012.

I am removing the postings which refer to the production efforts for the readings that have taken place. If you need that information let me know. I expect to move it to the "Nunc Licet" Archive.
