Discussion ensued, and the agreed upon script was announced along with a casting call for the required actors. Meanwhile, the technical director began drawing ground plans for the set (there were no changes in the script; only one set was needed). The head of the company had decided to direct, making that process simple, and he made several alterations to the ground plan before approving it. The set was projected to come in under the tentative budget that had been previously assumed, allowing more money to go to costumes as the play was a period piece, the costumer (a friend of the technical director's in a design class) was overjoyed with the windfall, and was able to rent many of the necessary costumes.
