HOLY FUCK!
I just got the biggest and most wonderful news EVER!
Are you sitting down? Cuz if not, please do so.
Kelly just called me at work and told me something that is BLOWING OUR MINDS!!!
Ok, here is the quick backstory:
The guy who wrote the play we are doing, John Russell, died of AIDS before the show debuted off-Broadway. Due to the circumstances surrounding his death, the play had a very short run and closed a month or so after opening.
Now, in order to get the copyrights for this production, Kelly and Megan have been talking directly with friends of John Russell about the guidelines for doing the show.
WELL!
Kelly just received a phone call from the guy who handles the copyrights and he told her that not only is HE coming to see the show, so are the PARENTS of John Russell! And not only are THEY coming to see the show, but their BUSINESS INVESTOR is coming as well and if they like what they see, they are going to talk to us about INVESTING IN THE PRODUCTION!!! UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
This is HUGE news.
HUGE.
I mean, of course, it could mean nothing. It could just be a really big compliment to us by having actual friends and family of John Russell be at one of the performances. OR it could go as big as Broadway. Really, the possibilities are endless. It’s dependent on a number of things, but I can’t BELIEVE that we are going to have the honor of having these IMPORTANT and INFLUENTIAL people in our audience! FUCKING YAY!!!!!!!!!!
This is especially good news since last night we rehearsed the ending of the show for the first time and let me tell you…it is GOOOOOOOOD. By the last scene, Kelly and I were both sobbing on stage and it was incredibly powerful. And it was only our FIRST time through the scene. We all left rehearsal a bit overwhelmed and absolutely stoked about the progress we are making.
Holy shit my head is spinning off its axis right now.
God is so good. He gave me this show to do and all of the wonderful experiences that have come out of it. And now he’s giving us the chance to take this show to the next level.
I have never been so excited for anything in my entire life.
Could this be the start of my career?!!?!?!?!?!
Ian and I are off to drinks tonight. We kissed onstage for the first time last night and it was incredible. He handled it with style and grace and we grew even closer as friends. We also discussed the possibility of putting up a show together after this one is done.
Ok, I have to go. I have to call my parents immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone have a wonderful weekend.
Mine is already starting out in the most life changing way.
THANK YOU GOD!!!!
