6: Meeting Brian

Tuesday Lena and I went to go and meet Brian Marshall one of the directors from Mercury Summer Stock. They are going to open Thoroughly Modern Millie, their "My First Musical" musical in the next couple of weeks so we met them right before a rehearsal. It was awkward at first because originally Rose was supposed to be there since she was the only one of us who actually knew Brian but because of the sports banquet at school she was unable to come. Once we actually figured out where we were supposed to be and what Brian actually looked like the meeting went very well. Brian was nice, open, and helpful about partnering with us and answering all the questions we had. We shared our press release with him, gave him a digital copy of the poster and some print ones, and we gave our list of contacts. He also may be able to help us find a drummer for the show which would be really really awesome because that's the one thing will still haven't been able to find. The most helpful thing Brian could do for us, besides finding us a drummer, would be to get us connected to the news show, Live on Lakeside. That would introduce us to a much wider audience and potentially help us raise more money for My First Musical.
