It's so great to see that your goal has been reached. It makes me happy to know that this journey will not be held up by something as silly as money!! Congratulations to you, and to all of us who are on this journey with you!
Creator Emil Hietanen on November 29
Oh my god! You made it!! Congratulations, I'm so thrilled for you, wohoo!
Creator Brett Evans on November 28
Thank you Andrew for your kind words and loving support!! This really has been such a wonderful experience, not only having my personal community rally together to make this happen but to also feel this support from people I have never met is a special sort of feeling. It makes me feel our commonality I guess. One human bean supporting another human bean. Doesn't get much better than that! I am moved.
Thanks again. love and love, Heidi

There is a healing magic in what you do, know that you will achieve and keep on creating. It is in the "creation" that your real magic is performed. Keep on keeping on guys. I will pledge more close to the day also...

Thank you for this inspirational project. It all seems so amazing to me and I am sure you will be very successful. What is most amazing to me however is how successful your project is on Kickstarter, as a theatre project.
I am myself an actor and theatre maker and looking to create new projects and have been wondering how on earth a theatre production could compete with all the other projects on Kickstarter that seems so cool and have all these amazing tech demos. It is easier for a game maker or musician to present their work on the internet as their work uses mainly the same medium. This is not the case for theatre which is more live and also abstract than previously mentioned projects.
I havn´t been able to figure out how to present a theatre project to the crowdfunding scene until I saw your presentation, and now it is all so clear to me. Thank you and good luck, I support your project with all my heart (and a small sum of money).
