Musical theatre is no joke. 8 shows a week is not a game. Those of you who are feeling overwhelmed you are not alone. What we do is a skill. And we are athletes. It was hard coming back after the pandemic. Be gentle and kind with yourself bc we can’t be perfectionist right now.

Gavin Creel you were a talent, a light, a star, a mentor and a friend. And that voice I will never forget your voice. And how you encouraged me to stay in London and to keep going. From Book of Mormon to Waitress you were my friend. The world has lost a light today.

A dream came true this week, I finally bought my Mom a house. She grew up poor in a small town in North Carolina. And never owned a home of her own. But now we have more than a house, we have a home 💗🥹 We are so excited to start our new life here.✨
