Musical Mammories

I have been hatching a plan to write a musical for several months now and have been collecting a number of stories and ideas for a project of my very own. I often look to others as a source of inspiration, so tonight I attended a show called "Girl Camp."

The 30-minute musical was written by a couple of friends in the improv community and performed at the UCB Theater as a one-off. The turnout was terrific and the show irreverent and hilarious. I would certainly be surprised if they weren't offered the opportunity to put the show up for a longer run.

I was inspired by their production. They kept it simple, short and sweet. In truth, it left me wanting more!

I think that in order to attck a project of my own, I need to start small. All too often I get an idea in my head about something, but there are too many parts or components for me to tackle on my own. I need to start small and let it grow. Start small. That is the key.
