My sister @ambaldwinning came up with this idea and asked me to execute

A while ago I started putting together some words about why “Hello, Dolly!” is so important to me mostly as an excuse to share Carol Channing clips, and then it morphed into a piece about love, loss, living abroad, and remembering Gavin Creel. ❤️

And hey if you’re here for the wider Musical of the Month club, go ahead and click the cheeky old link in bio so that you can share your thoughts with me! Current assignment is another Jerry Herman, “MAME” (1966).

Real quick before 2025 ends I gotta say how very lucky I felt that in 2015 I spent a summer traipsing around the UK researching learning disabled & autistic theatre companies and dreamt of working with one of them, and a decade later I spent a summer touring around the UK with said company.

For nearly a decade I’ve been part of @spellboundtheatre, NYC’s only company dedicated to audiences ages 0-5 and their families.

In theatres, libraries, community centers, museums, parks, anywhere! Spellbound has created tiny moments of magic where families get to play together, often for the young ones’ first ever theatrical experience.

Spellbound seeks to make this programming accessible to New Yorkers through shows that are free or low-cost, or translated into Spanish or Mandarin.

Your support will help to spark creativity and embolden a generation to collaborate, imagine, and care.

Next year I’ll be transitioning off the board; so for my last hurrah, wouldn’t you please *give the gift of play* today!
