Reading this I felt that same flutter as if I was l listening to an overture while the lights dim. Take me along, I thought, take my hand and let's go. Together. Armfeldt's dressing room? So be it...
Saluting all the concepts here. The one-way door to your creative life (the one that fills the void), the unnecessary drama and self-obsession of theatre people, and the beauty of that moment when artist and audience connect. I wish I had a photo of my folks taking 10yo me to see THE FANTASTICKS (in a tented theatre-in-the-round!), my first live theatre. "Try to Remember..." Great piece, Marcy.

Love that, Meg. Thanks for reading.
Beautiful Marcy. Photo and words. So honored to have walked through that same door way too many years ago.
