when the choreographer says “try screaming for real, let’s see how it feels!” and it turns out it feels absurd and no one could keep it together (it’s me, i’m the choreographer 🤦🏻‍♀️)

when @alsilbs was asked to write a new book for BRIGADOON a few years ago, i was over the moon - i knew she would build the script out of love for the piece and love for musical theater. we had secret dreams that we would get to do a production of it together, but we knew it was probably not in the cards - it’s rare that one woman gets a chance to break new ground in this industry, but almost unheard of for two to get this kind of an opportunity.

call it fate, kismet, or divine intervention; but we got to premiere the new adaptation last night at @pasadenaplayhouse and it. was. magic. it’s crazy to see something you’ve dreamt about for years become a reality - and even crazier when the reality manages to somehow be better than the dream.

i am so, so grateful to have an artistic soulmate in @alsilbs - i am so grateful to this extraordinary company for diving in with such care and generosity; i am so grateful to @dannyfeld for giving our show its first home; and i am so grateful to the designers, stage managers, crew, and staff at pasadena playhouse - and the wonderful humans who represent the Lerner and Lowe foundation - for working tirelessly to support us these past 5 weeks.

and to get to choreograph on a stage that Agnes de Mille danced on? choreographed on? directed on?my heart is bursting. i am the luckiest woman alive. it’s almost like being in love.

if you’re in LA, get ye to the playhouse to see this beautiful production. i am so unbelievably proud of it.
