Milkman and Other Thoughts!

I love  meeting fellow creative people. I love making connections with people that inspire me and that I learn from.

Last year my friend Bethany asked me if I would be willing to write a play for her to direct as part of her graduate thesis. It was an intimidating proposition. But I agreed because, well, opportunities like that don’t come around all the time.  So we collaborated, and here we are, on the verge of opening. Yesterday as the actors where stretching, and the assistant stage manager was whirring about backstage setting props it hit me… this is a REAL SHOW. And it is possible because an extremely talented director, and an extremely talented cast and crew deemed me worthy to collaborate with.  It is pretty overwhelming!

It got me thinking about another friend of mine, and fellow blogger LA girl in L.A.  http://www.lagirlinla.blogspot.com/ who recently did and entry all about grabbing opportunities and making connections. It’s so true; we may not have power over everything in our life. We may not always get what we want, but we can put ourselves in a position to catch opportunity when it does come along. And that is something that I want to start doing more of for sure!

Oh and just in case if any of you are interested, her is a poster for our show if you happened to be in the area and want to take in some theatre!
