hey k -

the reading is one month away! i definitely think we’ll have to pull out our credit cards for this. i like your idea of selling tshirts & giving to actors...also my parents kindly donated some cash for a cast party.

Michael, are you going to be able to get the songs together? I know there’s no time to edit everything like we wanted to but we can still see how the story goes with what we have, right? And p.s., I do like how you’ve pepped up the shoe song; maybe we can get the cast to do a kick line for the chorus. I also really like “Dare to Waltz” but I was hoping for something more Viennese –sounding — maybe in the next iteration.

we can rethink songs & music after the dust settles and we can sort things out. I feel like we’re trying to fill a beer bottle with a fire hose right now.

Sleep? What's that? Glad we had a chance to hang out before you went to NY. The video is going to turn out okay. Hope to finish this weekend. Yay on Harry! I really like some of these other faces. To think we might be "discovering" someone. It's like playing God, creating this alternate reality!

Okay, here it is! I managed to kluge the video together for our crowdfunding campaign, using snippets of music from the Shoe song and the Fairy Godwhatever instrumental rough for the ending – good finish, no? Tell your friends!
