My overall impression

I of course, loved this show. Outside of being married (full disclosure!) to Jeffrey Stackhouse, I’ve seen it & had a terrific time at many of its workshop incarnations. Jonathan Price’s music is complex and meaty and beautiful.

But the reason I’m here is Jeffrey has asked me to say:

“Gods bless Amanda Maddox, whoever she be, but I’m the one who feels honored and constantly challenged working with these fine casts. Rather than their being inspired by me, I’m inspired by them on a night-to-night basis.
The confidence comes from knowing how many pros there are around to catch, should ever we fall. — But, yeah, thanks Amanda, you’re obviously a sweet soul. Glad you liked it.”

And I (Wendy) couldn’t recommend this show highly enough.
