Emily = Love

Thank You to my Emilie cast and crew,
I could have never done this without you.

I decided I wanted to write about this exceptional group of people and how much I appreciated all of you!

 First of all.....this girl!

 I had never worked directly with Kirsten before until this show. I was so thrilled when she cast me as Emilie and trusted me with such an honor. I decided I owed it to her to work as hard as I could. I didn't quite know what she thought of me at first and was so afraid she was going to regret her decision. However, it didn't take long for me to come to absolutely adore her and trust her as my director. Hope we work together again soon. Thank you again, for trusting me to do this!

Mr. Gustavo or Senior Voltaire
 This show has been my first stage experience with Gus as well. We knew each other for years doing theater at Venture. Although we had never acted together, I knew he had a good heart and fun attitude so it would be great. I'm sure I was totally obnoxious and drove him crazy much of the time but I appreciate everything you did!

My soul sister Kelsey.....
I know you still give me shit about dragging you along to auditions but you are truly remarkable in this show. You help the rest of us be great. No one else would be able to do what you can do in ten seconds of stage time with perfect comedic timing.  Several people have commented you were their favorite part. I honestly couldn't have done this without you here with me. I love our time on stage together, and you are probably the only twenty three year old who could legitimately pull of my mother. May we never ever stop having chances to work together.

And Kristin......Dear Husband, Newton, Soldier Poet


After all our time searching for a man, I am so thrilled you had the guts to go for the role and become our gentleman. I had a strong feeling you were the right one to do it.  You have absolutely exceeded all my expectations and successfully convinced Emilie you are a hell of a man! Thank you for supporting me on and off stage. Great work! 

Lovely Sydney!


 This show also granted me my first opportunity to work with Sydney. The first time I read a scene with her at rehearsal she was a breath of fresh air and still is every time we share the stage. Finding a scene partner like her is a rare treasure. I truly believe you were meant to play this role and be the one sitting on that bed with me at the end of each show. You are an extraordinary woman and force of talent. I hope we can most definitely work together again!

Glenda, you are incomparable to any other costumer I know. As well as the best person to be supporting you back stage. The blood, sweat and tears you spent to make this come to live has been magical. Thanks You!

Matt- Next show, you are my sound guy whether you want to be or not! Thanks for all your hard work for us.

Chloe- your the raddest thing to ever operate a light board in America. Love you and thank you for taking all the time to do this!

THANK YOU GOD AND YOUR BEST EQUATIONS!
