Apprentices--​

Give this jpg quote a look.

And during a walk or meal or moment of repose, chew on the following…

As the season spins up…
As rehearsals demand more of you, and tire you out…
As homesickness may start to set in…
As the steep learning curves of Tessitura and House Management and all other secondaries challenge your desire for instant gratification…

As seemingly menial things like laundry and going to the grocery store and organizing the bazillion tickets for our patrons grind your patience…

…remember WHY we do what we do.

Cling to the commitment to simply move forward, at least a little bit, day by day, trusting that the BIG discoveries will manifest when the time is right and you are ready.

Re-invest in the never-ending work of CHANGING PEOPLE. Events are beyond us. People will always be before us. And they come to us, in our theatres, to be reminded why they do what THEY do. To be refreshed in their commitment to moving forward. To find the strength to re-invest in the daily things they do to also change the world by changing each person just a little bit at a time.
