Things Are Shaping Up!

Update #1 · Jul 29, 2012 · comment

Hi Backers and Future Backers of The Blind Owl:

I went to a rehearsal for Crave today, and things are coming together quite nicely. It is going to be a great show. The actors are engaged, the director is focused, and the designers are enthralled in their ideas on how to bring the show to life.

I was impressed with the run-through I witnessed.

I can't wait to see you at the show this August.

Regards,

Christopher Plummer

Associate Artistic Director

The Blind Owl
