So I just finished a wee chat with Siobhan she at her kitchen table in Clare me on my couch on the Lower East Side. Unfortunately, today our conversation centered around money. Nobody wants to have to think about money when you're making art but unfortunately when you're working sans a producer you have to talk about money. Needless to say it is all a bit stressful but we're going to make it happen. Siobhan's family bought a field in their town a number of years ago. They started with 38 pence and somehow came up with the money to buy the land etc. Siobhan said they never thought about the money they needed they just dreamt about what they would do with that field. So while I'm not going to completely put the budget out of my mind from now on I'm going to focus more on what we're going to do with this play, this big open field, we got a lot of potential.
That said don't forget about our first fundraiser Ma Familia... next Saturday May 8th! It's a fun afternoon of storytelling. Check us out on Facebook as well!!
all the best,
Jen
