I was advised to start a blog about theatre and what I do. My first thought was, "What in the world am I going to say?" My next thought was, "Who is going to want to hear about anything that I have to say?" Well, I guess YOU do because otherwise you wouldn't be reading this! So, I am going to try as often as possible to keep you guys up to date on what's going on with my company. From how I pick the shows I want to do, to rehearsals to all the drama that goes on with putting on a show. People don't really know what it takes to put on a production. IT CAN BE REALLY DIFFICULT! Especially as a director. I've been on both sides of the stage. I've acted and directed. Two very different yet very same positions. In the end, you want the same thing...a great show! However as a director, you have to make sure EVERYTHING goes right. From the actors portraying their characters to the musicians knowing their music to the stage crew knowing what to do so they don't kill or injure anyone including themselves! But when the curtain goes up, there is a certain calm and pride that comes over me knowing that I had a role in getting this thing on stage and in front of a crowd. I hope that you will enjoy this journey with me and who knows, maybe you will be in one of my shows and I'll be blogging about you one day!
