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
