Today we LANd

Today is the day!

I woke up fully rested (which seldom happens) and incredibly anxious for the event today. I began my normal routine of checking my mail, blogs, Facebook, etc, and I put on some musicals. One song really spoke to me. You may know it? It's a song called "Nine Percent Chance" from High Fidelity. Based on the movie...which was based on the book by Nick Hornby.

"Sometimes all you need is a sliver of hope and you may just succeed, or at least the door is open."

This project began with nothing more than a passion to create something new and innovative. The first draft opened the door to possibilities, and hopefully we are kicking that same door open with this draft. I guess we'll just have to wait and see? We are expecting a decent-sized crowd in the Rauh and everything is fit as a fiddle and ready to fly.

We will be filming the reading for the Playhouse's archives and we will also have some photographers and video artists taking footage as well. It's less than 3 hours til the reading folks, and I have to get out there and start prepping the pre-show. I hope to see you there. Today is the day that we LANd.

Cortex & Wally Are Here! THE COUNTDOWN CONTINUES! 1 DAY TIL THE READING!

Puppets are fun.

That's the general consensus.

Dr. Cortex and his Wallaby Assistant Wally are in the house, er playhouse! Thanks to this special thing called "overnight shipping" Dr. Cortex and Wally arrived this morning in the mail! I don't think they liked being stuffed inside of boxes though, because as soon as they arrived they just wanted to play! Dr. Cortex keeps telling me funny jokes!
We're only a day away, and after a good long tech rehearsal today we are ready and primed for the staged reading tomorrow! The programs are printed, the puppets are here, and the lights work! Crazy eh?

REMEMBER! TOMORROW AT 5:00 PM IN THE RAUH THEATRE!
