The Home Stretch!

Update #1 · Apr 18, 2012 · comment

Dear Backers,

Thank you so much for your support. Abby and I are working hard to get the show ready to open in two weeks. Last week we did a feedback showing for a collection of contributors and are now implementing changes, working through kinks, and ironing out details. We have a lot of exciting surprises in store for the audience, and are sprinting towards the finish line. There's so much I want to share with you, but we don't want to give too much away. So here's what I can share spoiler-free:

-Abby's been working late hours on some sculpture projects

-Contributor Alexis Iammarino is in Maine finishing up her contribution which will be shipping shortly.

-I'm trying to work out some complicated logistical engineering. 

Abby would like you all to know that she will "sing, puppet, get very dirty, get very clean, tell loads of secrets, dance fiercely with all my heart and soul, poo my pants, and talk about myself. I just might even talk about YOU. Don't be afraid. Be intrigued."

Finally, If you know anyone else who might be interested in becoming a backer on this exciting project please pass it on to them. We will not receive ANY money if we do not meet our full goal of $5,000.

Thanks,

Charles
