title of show first preview wow
I was completely blown away by the first preview of [title of show] yesterday at the Lyceum Theatre on Broadway. Check out the action at the stage door after!
Heidi was gorgeous (and what a voice!), Hunter was lovable, Jeff beamed (and his tunes move me as much as when I first heard them!), and Susan made the show matter. Larry got so much applause when he first walked out on stage that I was afraid he wouldn't be able to start the show. Wow.
It's been a long journey. I'm proud of y'all.
This is funny, I found this on the web at BroadwayWorld.com.
Look carefully behind Hunter/Jeff/Susan/Heidi/Larry and director Michael Berresse, and see who's there...

Going Singing (Welsh, Spanish)
I'm looking forward to joining The North American Welsh Choir in October on a singing trip to Welsh Patagonia.
I'm not Welsh, but I am North American.

In order to create, you gotta produce!
Stumbled upon, at blog.pmarca.com: Age and the entrepreneur, part 1: Some data. Research by Dr. Dean Simonton of U.C. Davis:
[C]reativity is a probabilistic consequence of productivity, a relationship that holds both within and across careers.Within single careers, the count of major works per age period will be a positive function of total works generated each period, yielding a quality ratio that exhibits no systematic developmental trends.
And across careers, those individual creators who are the most productive will also tend, on the average, to be the most creative: Individual variation in quantity is positively associated with variation in quality.
Time to get to work.

Thurgood on Broadway
I went the other night to see Laurence Fishburne in his one-man show Thurgood at the Booth Theatre. Sat in the first row. The entire stage set consisted of the big table and lectern from behind which lawyers stood before the court. It was extraordinary storytelling; great script, great acting.
He talked at length about the behind-the-scenes arguments at the NAACP before and during Brown v Board of Education, and it brought back memories of driving around Knoxville with Glenn Reynolds hearing about the classes in Constitutional Law he was teaching.

February Is Almost Over
Mom noticed that I hadn't posted anything in the month of February, and was worried about me. She can rest easy. It's not because there is nothing going on, rather there is way too much.
Our indie horror flick Red Hook is coming along nicely, and we have engaged Quentin Chiapetta to compose the movie score, which is going to be amazing.
At the same time, I'm working with Red Hook's director, Elizabeth Lucas, to make a new Sci Fi feature, called Fade To White, which we've been filming in central park in the snow. Just beautiful.
So, in case you were worried, I haven't been sitting in bed eating bon bons.

A Moral and Intellectual Emergency
From Letter to a Christian Nation, by Sam Harris:
Imagine the consequences if any significant component of the U.S. government actually believed that the world was about to end and that ending would be glorious. The fact that nearly half of the American population apparently believes this, purely on the basis of religious dogma, should be considered a moral and intellectual emergency.
Hat tip to Richard Dawkins, whose book The God Delusion is on my nightstand. (Sam's book was on my nightstand a few months ago, but I didn't notice this choice snippet then).
Interested in civic action for people whose worldview is free of supernatural and mystical elements? Consider joining the Brights. I did.
