[quote of the day]

"Lots of folks have asked 'How you guys doing?' or 'How do you feel?' and the answer is, a lot of different emotions. When our 'pep rally' date was first announced (we prefer to call it a pep rally...closing night sounds too final), we were super sad for like 48 hours. We cried, got angry, sad (sangry)...all of it. However, pretty quickly on came this wave of creative energy and excitement about all the possibilities for the future of [tos]. Truth is, Jeff and I succeeded the day we wrote down the first words of this show. Anytime anyone breaks through and starts to create something they love, they have succeeded. [title of show] is about not being afraid to dream out loud. Our dream was to tell this story on a Broadway stage, and with courageous producers and investors and blood sweat and tears from all the folks in our [tos] family, that dream is happening. While this [tos] chapter at the Lyceum is done on the 12th, I know that this journey is far from over. One of our awesome [tos]ser fans sent us this Louis L'Amour quote that says: 'There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.' I love that. So we're hitting pause this Sunday and then next up...maybe [tos] in some other cities and then back to New York (we want to have to get tuxes and dresses for the Broadway prom...also known as the Tony Awards!), plus a [tos] TV show, and we're still keen on a [tos] blimp and theme park, too!"

That would be great if they took [title of show] on tour. I've been listening to the off-Broadway cd and it's great. The songs are funny and Hunter, Jeff, Heidi and Susan are so funny and eager and appealing. I'm sorry I missed this one. I know I would have liked it.
