All right. Here is the video of the London workshop performance.<\/p>\n
Why is it important that i clarify that this is a small workshop performance in a small space, with a small budget and only 9 days of rehearsal?<\/p>\n
I get email from people who are excited about the album and dream of it as a theater show. And their vision is EPIC. Big and epic. Vast and grand. When they expect to see the show, that is what they expect to see.<\/p>\n
My vision is also big and epic.<\/p>\n
So for those who are expecting big and EPIC, i just want to let you know that we want big and epic too, but we must first get there. This is that first step. And the first step is a small workshop performance. In order to appreciate the challenge, i would ask you to imagine the album being staged in a room the size of your living room. How would you do it? This is how we did it.<\/p>\n
The sound is awful and there’s no way around that. You’ll just have to live. And videos of live theater are always pale reflections. But if you want to take a gander despite all that, have at it.<\/p>\n
This video was edited by Nadia Adame and i would once again thank the crew and cast.<\/p>\n
Okay, there’s my pathology out of the way. Here it is. Your moment of zen:<\/p>\n
