As a little girl I enjoyed reading plays in the text books in school. I would take the book home and read all the plays in the book. I just loved learning all the lines playing everybody, I was the queen, king, joker, the princess. It was so much fun. The dream started way back then. In school my teacher, Mrs. Pears, would have the class taking turn performing on stage. I would practice what I would do each week after watching Red Skelton on television. The stage was where I felt so comfortable. It didn't matter what anyone thought I was happy on the stage.
Let's fast forward to June 20, 2009, my show the Bag Lady. I performed the show of my dreams a show that lived inside of me for months. It would not go away it ate at me, the words danced over and over in my head. The scene rushed though my mind like a rushing wind. I wanted to run from it but it only ate deep within my soul. Something inside me said that I would not be happy untill I wrote and performed the show. I had to stop fighting and I let it go and began to write the show that dwelled within me.
My writing coach asked me to write in my block that jounrey of my dream on my blog. Again I wrestle with that assignment just as I wrestled with writing the show. I decided not to fight it and just go with it. For a while I will write how my show began and my experienced with what was given to me from God here on this blog. Those who read my blog I can only hope that you enjoy my story. I found my experience of developing my show as a great, wonderful and exciting journey. Let me know what you think.
