One day down...

The Lloyd Rehearsal Room at the end of the day...
It's really happening, you guys.

We had a wonderful first day of rehearsal - reading through the script, discussing the show, seeing the set model, learning some music...  It was so exciting to hear it again, especially in the hands of such a talented and thoughtful group of people.

We also got to meet a whole slew of the wonderful staff at Weston.  It is an overwhelming feeling to know how many people are working hard to bring what was (not too long ago) a strange idea we had for a musical to life.

There was a moment when the girls were learning "Nobody Knows" that it hit me.  Those binders and music stands will disappear sometime soon and we'll get to see the show on its feet and in a full and complete world.  As a young writer you learn to covet every moment you have at a music stand with actors - it's easy to forget that this is the ultimate dream.  I don't think we could be more lucky than we are today.  (But I expect to say that every day until we board the Megabus back to NYC on September 9th...)
