The Day That Changed My Life - Reflections.........

We have received emails regarding the dates of our return to the stage. Although we have not confirmed any dates, we plan to return in 2012 and we will make the announcement here. We appreciate your supportive enthusiasm and we miss you too. In the meantime, we will continue to keep you updated with various journeys. Our hope is that you will find encouragement and inspiration through their journeys.

The Day That Changed My Life made its Off Broadway debut in the fall of 2010 to rave reviews. This unconventional Off Broadway experience takes the audience into the journeys of those whose lives have been touched by cancer.

While each journey is unique, we all share a common theme - cancer changes our lives forever.

Here we found a story that covers the journey of three year old Aleisha Hunter who was diagnosed with breast cancer, you can imagine this diagnosis did not come easy.

What's Next?!!!


Although the journey to the stage has ended -- for now, we are still working and fine tuning for the next run. We must say Thank You to all of our sponsors with their generosity, we were able to give a gift bag each night to everyone who attended the journey.

We have received your emails, your tweets, your inquiries and we are thrilled to no end. We understand that the journey has touched many. Surprisingly, we have followers who have not officially signed up with a profile but they have followed us and mentioned it to us at the theater, while some sent messages and expressed their interest in knowing what's next.

What's great is that we have created a page on FaceBook. Come on over and join us there while we keep you updated on the happenings and we can have a different forum to interact ;-)


We've had quite an experience and we're working on it


The journey will continue............

Busy About Business and More..

There is always something to do and just when it's done, something else is added to the Must Be Done Today -- list. Can I tell you? There is never a dull moment on this journey to the stage. There have been so many changes and adjustments that we have made along the way -- but our determination to succeed has kept us moving along without missing a beat.

We've been very busy with getting things done and having all the wrinkles ironed out. While we highlight the active process of the cast working on their characters, we have so many other things going on. Before we begin, let's have a refreshing drink.



One of the great things about our cast is that they are also actively working on other projects. Suzy Kimball was outstanding in her role as Alicia Santiago in Mobius a play in The New York International Fringe Festival. We were so thrilled to see her perform and like other cast members who also came out to see her performance, we were moved.



Ashley and Tara were all smiles after seeing Suzy's performance in the first act.



Albert and Dawn are so proud of Suzy. We can't wait for you to see her in The Day That Changed My Life along with our other awesome cast members.


Dawn, Suzy, Ashley and Evgeniya


There you have it, we are out and about - cheering on our cast. We want to Thank You all for your comments, sharing our blog, your emails and for following us. Feel free to invite your family, friends and social network buddies to follow us on our journey to the stage. Now as for us, it's back to the business of our upcoming production. By the way, tickets will be available shortly and we do mean shortly :-) It's time for a refill................

Location, Places, Smiles, Pose.........

What a week!!!!!!!!! We've moved to a new rehearsal space.

It's Photo Day! We're all excited, running late, heavy traffic, parking, running/walking hurriedly to the theater. Cast members are already waiting while some are running late, stuck in traffic, bus and trains running on their regular horrible weekend schedule which messes everyone up. Photographer running late.... What can we say, it was just one of those days.


Moving right along, we enter and we were very pleased. The theater space is perfect to accommodate the entire cast all in one room.

We dropped our boxes, folders and binders and began to get everyone ready for the shoot.

While waiting for other cast members and the photographer to arrive, we talked a bit then a scene was called to the stage.

I noticed a look on the faces of the cast and I realized they were wondering where were the goodies - no water, no juice, no muffins or donuts. Yes indeed, we came without a thing to eat or drink. I rushed out to the nearest store and came back with the good stuff (water and fruit juices). Thankfully, at that point all was right with the world, at least for the moment.


Photographer arrives.........

Places, places everyone.




It's not as easy as you would think - placement is quite tricky






Smiles....

It's hot on the set, as time went on, the lights were really hot and some poses were rather uncomfortable, but the troopers that they are endured for the good of the shoot-- on with the happy faces.







Trying to get the best shot.



Hmmmmmmm,






Now pose.......... The Team





It's a wrap folks, my hair has collapsed -- clearly it's time to go.



Don't forget to Save the Date ;-)

The Day That Changed My Life

Welcome to our blog where we are sharing our journey as we work to bring our production to the stage.

The Day That Changed My Life is coming to an Off Broadway Stage and The Team is excited! We have compiled the journeys of those affected by cancer and were so generous to share them with us.

The Team is incredible - understanding that we have quite a task ahead, we are constantly working to improve and focus on making this production great. The support of those who believe in our project and those who have joined us, makes it an enjoyable process.

We invite you to travel with us as we update our journey of this production.
