An idiot in motion goes faster than a genius at rest.
Love this. It was a tweet I saw and think it is a perfect reminder to keep pressing forward.

Crazy couple of months. Peter Pan: The Musical has closed its season and I'm very, very pleased with how it went. (At the same time I was also building a new pop-up escape room experience for my touring teams) Word-of-mouth certainly seemed to kick in for the second week of sales, ending with pretty close to full houses in the last couple of days. I was able to bring four of my OSHC group audiences to the show, which significantly helped increase ticket sales. And the feedback from them was excellent. Definitely some tweaks to happen in the process of how we engage them and get them into the venue. Went fairly smoothly but there's definitely some improvements we can make to simplify that for them. But we ended up finishing on 813 seats recorded across the two-week season of 16 shows. (The OSHC group leaders got in for free so its probably closer to 850 total) I was also able to reduce the overall spend as we went bring us about 15% under expected cash outlay on the show (approx $2k saving) There was, as always with independent shows, a lot of in-kind support, both from the venue and myself, in materials provided that were in stores rather than having to go out and purchase. Next job is to keep this audience as engaged as possible to excite them about coming back for the September show. What are you working on right now?

Show opens this week
Been a crazy couple of weeks. Built and launched my new Pop Up Escape Room - actors are on the road across the next couple of weeks touring that in vacation care sites. And Peter Pan the Musical opens on Wednesday. I directed, produced and did the set design / build. We bumped in and started plotting today and now have a couple of days of tech and dress runs and we are in season. Hope you are all trucking along as well - let me know what you are working on right now - I would love to hear it and I suspect others would as well. Here is a shot of the set for Peter Pan the Musical :) I went with a nostalgic take on kids building blocks and books.
