Alrighty, speaking of very big projects, I've got one! And it’s happening on Saturday. Oh gosh, that’s tomorrow?!
This summer, I collaborated with the composer Joshua Cerdenia on a new, 20-minute musical called “The Eyes of Vienna.” I’ve mentioned it here before (it’s been on my mind!); set in 1880 Vienna, it takes place during a meeting between Sisi, the Empress of Austria, and Hans Makart, a painter who was once extremely famous (who is now extremely…not). We have two amazing actors, Krystal Sobaskie and Carl Zurhorst, bringing this story to life.
We’re having a concert reading at 2pm on Saturday, 9/28 at the Bruno Walter Auditorium at Lincoln Center. It’s a just-show-up affair, no tickets needed. We’re one of eight (!) musicals performing that day; composers, lyricists, librettists, and actors banded together during the New York Public Library’s annual “Across a Crowded Room” series for emerging musical theater writers. It’ll be a great day with shows from 11am-1pm and 2pm-4pm.
That’s a long way of saying: I would love to see you there if you’re able to come!
And I would also like to thank every person who reads this newsletter — whether we’ve personally emailed or not — because I find great joy and motivation in being digitally surrounded by so many people who are also reaching, reaching, reaching for their dreams.
I’ll keep going for mine if you keep going for yours.
Thank you.
