If you are going to stage your own musical you need to find a venue before anything else. It’s counter-intuitive, scary and finite but it has to be done. All your time frames are based around the opening night and you cannot have an opening night without a venue.
Okay, here goes.
(Not being a particularly consistent, consistent or successful blogger this may turn out to be terrible. There’s your warning.)
This coming October I am having my musical Zombie Wedding staged in my local area. As I am just at the beginning of this journey I thought to myself “Hey Daniel, why don’t you blog it?”. Since I was in no mood to argue with myself I turned on my computer and stared typing. This is the fourth or fifth sentence of that session. Over the coming months I am going to try to document as much as I can all the whats, whys and wherefores of putting on a musical, in particular my own musical.
I have not blogged in about a year and a good amount has happened in my little musical theater life. At least one leap that has meant that in not very long I will be flying out to New York. And not as a tourist. I will try and wrap it up in one concise and short blog post. Namely this one.
