So, this is my first official blog. Okay, I've posted various musings during recent years at my website http://www.spottiswoode.com/missives but since nobody could respond to them in the blogosphere they weren't really blogs.
And even those musings have trailed off in recent years. The new genre of instant memoir has quickly turned stale.
So, why am I now starting up again?
Fear!
I am potentially on the brink of making a complete fool of myself and going into debt at the same time! If I'm going to crash I might as well do it with guns blazing, Barnum and Bailey style. I am presenting my musical, ABOVE HELL'S KITCHEN, less than two months from now at the New York Musical Theater Festival. I have no idea how it's going to be paid for. And even though I seem to be assembling a remarkable team of talent to assist me on my journey to debtor's prison, there is still every chance that the show could be a complete embarrassment! For God's sake, we only get to load into the theatre on the day of the first performance.
Then again, it could be the best thing you'll ever see.
Casting has begun....
Please stay tuned, spread the word, and wish me well.
