Random Musings
I can't believe the show is less than a month away. Over a year ago when I learned we would be doing this show, I thought it would never get here. And now it's less than a month away. The cast will be here in just over a week for rehearsals. How unreal is that? 12 months of waiting have now come down to less than two weeks. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to seeing Bart, Michael and Rob again. And I can't forget Frank and Jack. And meeting Gregory, Keith and all of the 'new kids'.
It amazes me when I think back to 2000 when I first saw this show in Hershey, PA. For the past 6 years I've hoped that someone would bring it back. It sounds crazy, but I've always been - inexplicably - emotionally attached to this show. Being a part of the Majestic - and in essence, a part of this production - makes me feel like I've come full circle. I know there are others out there that feel like this show is finally getting its due. So at least I know I'm not alone.
Anyway, this was just a moment for me to rant about this show. I hope that everyone that reads this gets the chance to see the show either again, or for the first time. If for no other reason but to understand how powerful and emotionally evocative this show really is.
And now it's almost here. I'll be sure to check in more often to let you know how rehearsals are going. And to let you know of any interesting tidbits once the show is running.
And if you do make it to the theater - feel free to say hello. I'll be the one running around in the lobby with the radio wire coming out of my ear...

Not sure, but I'll see what I can find out. We have a meet and greet with the cast on Tuesday. If I can remember all of the 'new' folks, I'll post them on here.
thanks! We're excited to see all the folks involved in bringing this show back to life!
