We are in Tempe Az and the weather is hot and the show is busy. We have been losing people left and right as our 1st year came to an end. On the road we become a family for good and for bad. We realize who to go to for all things. You learn who to call when looking for Whole foods, or who to get directions to the gym from, or who to find out where CVS is. Not to mention who to talk to about anything. So when turnover happens in a cast, which is inevitable in this business, it is always a little strange.
The new cast members are wonderfully nice and absolutely talented. We are thrilled to have them and excited to get to know them. Last night Ashley Moniz went on and did a superb job for her first show. WOW, what a great opportunity! She proved to be a total pro and it was thrilling for her and for the cast.
We look forward to putting Candice Marie Woods in the show as Pilar and Adam Zelasko formerly Nikos/Padamadan into Monster Dalton's track. Adam is a great actor and will be awesome and i am sure Candice will too.
We send love to our brother Tally Sessions who opened in the South Pacific tour this week and are thrilled that departed family Josh Walden and Mamie Parris will be working together in Ragtime on Broadway. They are both brilliant and great people, so please support them and go see it in NYC.
It is strange to be here for over a year now. I remember a year ago like it was yesterday. So much has changed yet so much is similar. We will again be experiencing Halloween, THanksgiving, Christmas and New Years together. All of those seem so monumental from last year and now it will be with so many new people. I am nervous and excited about all of it.
So, let's wish all our departed well and hope that this year will treat us as good or better than the last......
til next time, KIKI
