Delights

Last night, I had the pleasure of spending some time with Holly (and other DaPoPoli Kristi & Bonnie) as we made the 2-hour journey to the Ross Creek Centre for the Arts to hear/see the first public performance of Allen Cole's newest musical, Rockbound. Garry was one of the ensemble members in a 10-day workshop of the second act. We went both to support him and to be among the first people outside the composer, producers, actors and musicians to hear a new Canadian work. Art is born and we were there. Yes!

I also had the pleasure of meeting Holly's grandmother, Sharon. What a woman! So engaging and warm. I learned she had been enthusiastically fundraising on behalf of the Berlin project. I have no words to accurately describe it - but I almost cried at the sense of profound gratitude I felt/feel. It's good to have people in your corner. Thank you!
