The set is built, the lights are lit, the script is rehearsed, the songs are fine-tuned … and soon we will have another show. The process has been arduous and has consumed a good chunk of my life for the last little while.
Years ago, I imagined a show a show with a cat and a mouse, some children, and a window. Now, it’s here.
GIVE, ultimately, has been an attempt to give to this community.
I am sure I can speak for everyone that has been a part of this team when I say, we hope you enjoy it.
To be finished with the book and have a working draft of the music … These things make me happy. And since we’re only a couple months from out from the production … it’s about time. I think we are all really excited about sharpening the finer points and polishing this project to a shine. I’m feeling confident and grateful this is going to happen. Two and a half years of hard work is about to take shape. Yay.
Working on Act 1 for the last couple of days. One thing about production of a play that is outstanding is finally seeing the actors moving around on a stage, reading the lines, and singing the songs. Also, one thing I keep thinking is … “When this is finished, it will be finished, and we can do it without even trying.” The work for a play is hard in the beginning, but not so much after.
