There are seasons in life when you feel something calling you back.
Not to relive the pastā¦
But to honor it.
To understand it.
To preserve it.
For the past few years, Iāve had the privilege of sitting down with nearly 40 Starlight Express alumni ā listening to stories that still carry the electricity of that first audition, that first roll onto the stage, that first opening night when the lights hit and the music surged through the body.
Now⦠itās time to begin sharing them.
The interview below ā one of the first I ever did ā is just the starting point. And over the next several months, Iāll be unveiling something very special.
This project is about defining moments.
⢠Where were you when you first heard about the audition?
⢠What was it like to step into that audition room?
⢠What did the rehearsal process demand of you ā physically, emotionally, spiritually?
⢠What did opening night feel like?
⢠And now, looking back⦠what does Starlight Express mean to you today?
This isnāt just nostalgia.
Itās legacy.
Itās growth.
Itās the evolution of who we were⦠and who weāve become.
And hereās the exciting part ā
If you are Starlight alumni⦠even if weāve already done an interview together⦠I would love to reconnect and do an updated conversation.
Time gives us perspective.
Perspective gives us wisdom.
Wisdom deserves to be shared.
Reach out to me.
Iāll send you the questions.
Weāll schedule time.
Weāll record it live on video.
Over the next several months, Iāll be revealing more about where this is headed ā and trust me, this is going to be something very special for all of us who ever laced up those skates and felt that roar.
This is about honoring the journey.
The sweat.
The fear.
The triumph.
The brotherhood and sisterhood.
The Voices of Starlight Express are still strong.
And weāre just getting started. āØ
