I woke up on Sunday morning, full off worry.
I know my cast and crew members had worked their butts off for Chapters of Love to make it the success that it was. I know everyone is tired to their bones because frankly, I was. Yet i know Rehearsals still had to go on. So I pressed on.
I walked into the theaterette a little afraid of the morale.
Boy was i ever wrong.
Everyone was so up in the sky in morale and mood.
I mean Sameer was walking in heels but hey.. we all know he's a little bit ga- different..
My lost boys were absolutely AMAZING. I've never seen a Lostboy scene as funny and entertaining as yesterday's rendition. I was actually laughing along. I wrote the scene, seen it a million times, corrected it at every step and critiqued it for the better part of a year and a half, but yesterday I was laughing. Laughing like as if it was the first time I saw the scene. Do you guys understand what this means?
It means we're ready.
Pirates. Mermaids. Lostboys. Indians. Ghouls. Hook. Boogeyman. John. Michael. Wendy. Tink. Peter.
You guys have matured so very much since that fateful audition day.. .
When Nicole was a weird china girl, Cheryl was scary WICKED, Kc had normal hair, Mus was trying to be tinkerbell, Kanages was only a brown indian girl and not a Red Indian Princess, Mel was a S**cited korean superstar (her hair damn epic la i remember) Jazreel was a hot yoga girl, Syawal was Suria TV superstar, Sameer was.. ok la no change there..
When I was this round ball of squishyness that was scared as hell about how this was going to play out over the next year.
You guys have changed me, for the better and for good.
We have one more month. Less so actually.
I just want to say that I am VERY VERY VERY confidant in staging Peter Pan.
I've been so for quite sometime now..but after Sunday its now a FACT that we're gonna tear that stage apart. (ok don't do that, we don't have money for damages like we had 2 years ago in TRCC)

Listen guys.
We're here and we're doing this.
I've very proud of all of you. Very Very proud.
You've got a VERY hard-working crew backing you up.
This year Peter Pan's gonna fly and we're all gonna be carrying his fat ass all the way to glory.
So Peter Pan: ReVamped Cast and Crew,
