A Window Opens

September 17th, 2010

I awoke this morning to a call from my composer. He was bummed… something he’d been working on fizzled out. He had really been hoping for some traction.

I could have been bummed too… but this theatre’s physical restrictions had inspired us both a few weeks ago to take a new spin on how we’d like to tell this story, and given us a new artistic direction to pursue that will help set us apart and strengthen the integrity and some of the elements of the show. And so, I was glad that in trying to solve a logistical problem (that we were only considering because of this theatre’s restrictions) we were able to be creative.

This new direction is also inspiring us to pursue other venues once we’ve refined the show… This experience reminds us once again that when one door closes, a window opens. We had to search for the window, and we’re the ones prying it open, but a window is still a window!
