i miss the music....

Sondheim once said:
"Musicals are, by nature, theatrical, meaning poetic, meaning having to move the audience's imaginations and create a suspension of disbelief, by which I mean there's no fourth wall."

And I want that in my life, for the rest of my life.

Sometimes, I think that I might be crazy. Having this dream. I think that it's just a dream and I'm setting myself up for failure. I should just quit before I'm ahead...but...then I remember God has a plan and He must have a really big one for me if He keeps pressing this into my heart.

God planned for me to fall in love.
And He planned for me to find this and hear him through it.


Jerry Orbach:

"Now listen Sawyer and listen good.
Even if you don't give a damn about me, think of all those kids you'll be throwing out of work if you don't do this. Think of the songs that will whither and die if you don't get up there and sing them. Think of the costumes that will never be seen, the scenery never seen, the orchestrations never heard. Think of our show and the thrill and pleasure it could give to MILLIONS.
Think of
"musical comedy" the most glorious words in the English language! Sawyer!
Think of BROADWAY!"
