Damn.
The show wasn't just good. It was pretty close to transcendent. A moment in time transformed by collective brilliance.
We crafted a bit of wood and foam into a technicolor dreamscape beneath mirrors that seemed to stretch our moment into infinity.
When Timothy Rose-Shields worked his lighting magic, that room didn't just glow, it pulsed, breathed, became pure chromatic energy. Then Jason laid down some funky old tracks, and suddenly we weren't just in a room anymore. We were inside something alive.
Magic. That's what happens when you give performers with hearts this big a playground like that.
Behind it all, the PASO crew and their volunteer army. These incredible souls who've been breathing life into shows like this for decades – they made it all possible. They're the heartbeat of this whole operation.
To be invited into this creative storm, to help shape this experience. It's a very humbling experience for me. This show, these people, this moment. They're something special.
Thank you for letting me create this space with you. For letting me be part of this.
