The big day is approaching. The nights get longer, more rich and dense, as what is affectionately coined ‘hell week’ (by my friends who are much better versed in the in’s and out’s of theater than I am) pushes onward. I see why one might call it that, and there is no place else I would rather be, or anything else I would rather be doing. Perhaps that is where the energy to press on is coming from – cause it sure ain’t common sense or physical logic.

The show is, in a word, stunning. The creative process of putting this evening together has been flowing, expanding, fruitful and an absolute joy to watch. Working with others to this extent to project a vision into the world has opened me up to a whole new dimension of collaboration and possibility in expression as an artist and performer.

It’s just been a total pleasure to direct this project, this fine collection of artists, under a veil that has encouraged their expression and ideas, and to be open to receiving the wondrous results in allowing the unexpected to unfold. Knowing that the person I was, even a year ago, could not have accepted this gift.. well. Let’s just say, I feel good right now. Really good.

Did I mention how fucking awesome this show is?

Obsidian opens this Saturday, Nov 15th, at the Little Red Studio. Tickets and a short description of the show are available through BPT and Little Red Studio.

This is my first full fledged show. I am the creative director, co-producer, multiple hat wearer, and one of the main performers. If you like my work, it’s rather a given that you’ll enjoy this show. We are a tremendous crew, if I do say so. Come see it! It’s going to be friggin epic.

And.. Thank you, for your support all of these years.
