"ONE FOR MY BABY" - WORKSHOP AT LAST! Oct. 11 and 12 NEW YORK CITY!

Update #29 · Jul 14, 2012 · 4 comments

Dear Backers,

After a rather long delay - our sincere apologies for that - we are thrilled to announce that "ONE FOR MY BABY" will be showcased in a full workshop in New York City! 

An EQUITY CAST of 28 and a hot 8 piece band will present this NEW MUSICAL to Broadway Producers and Investors on October 11th and 12th at the New 42nd St Studios in New York City.

Thanks to your stupendous support and a recent burst of spectacular funding from investors, this workshop will have been WELL WORTH the wait. Please know, that throughout the year (since our project was funded) we have never wavered in our commitment to you and in our mission to make sure that the funding you so generously provided would be put to the greatest and BEST possible use. That moment has come!

Further updates, will be posted as we finalize casting and move into the rehearsal process. We look forward to keeping you well informed from this point forward about how your $$ are working to the good of this project.

IMPORTANT NOTE! Those of you have earned 2 tickets to the workshop (and other perks) via your pledge should contact us ASAP to let us know if you will be attending and on what day. We would prefer to accommodate you on the FIRST PERFORMANCE on October 11 but will certainly admit you to either performance, either day. 

PLEASE NOTE - CUT--OFF FOR KICKSTARTER RESERVATIONS is OCT 1. 

SPECIAL NOTE! 

If you did NOT elect to attend the workshop at the time of our KICKSTARTER drive but would now like to UPGRADE YOUR PLEDGE- that is still possible! And still tax deductible! We would be thrilled to see any of our supporters to attend the workshop. DON'T HESITATE TO CONTACT US for the once in a lifetime experience of attending an actual BROADWAY WORKSHOP.  A "REAL LIFE" "SMASH!" (But far more thrilling IN PERSON than on your television!) PLEASE CONTACT US FOR FURTHER DETAILS.

MANY, MANY THANKS to all of you for your initial belief in ONE FOR MY BABY and for your patience with us while we laid the groundwork for the best workshop possible. 

HERE'S TO ALL OF US - JOB WELL DONE! And here's to "ONE FOR MY BABY!"

Sincerely,

Scott (Thompson) and Fred (Barton)

Hey Backers!

Home stretch here! Just a reminder that ALL CREDIT CARDS/PLEDGES will be debited and Charged tomorrow AM. Please make arrangements for that to all happen smoothly!

We will be sending out all the CD's and the rewards that we CAN within the next 4 to 5 weeks or so.

We will also be contacting you here with a FULL REPORT about the strategy and STYLE of presentation that we will eventually do in New York as soon as plans are finalized. MANY OPTIONS are being weighed at the moment and this process will definitely take some time before the correct choice become clear. But patience will bring great things!:)

PLEASE KNOW how greatly we appreciate what each and every one of you has contributed in order to make this project the great success it has become. This new musical now has LIFE and HOPE because of you!

We're crossing the line into history tonight- what a great run on Kickstarter.com! If you have any friends you want to include now would be the time.

And REMEMBER for contributions of $1000 or more, TWO tickets to the actual workshop are STILL available to you! It's going to be a banner day and upgrading to that level is still possible!

Love and gratitude to you all!


SIncerely,

Scott Thompson and Fred Barton
