As I was finishing my TV writing classes and working on my cabaret in the spring, I had an overwhelming feeling that I wanted to write more lyrics. I’m so grateful that the musical A Story No One Knows came back into my life at that moment. In just four months I rewrote lyrics, wrote new lyrics, revisited old lyrics. It was a huge challenge for me, one that at times I wasn’t sure I would be able to do, but I’m proud to say that on October 20th we presented a successful and beautiful reading presentation of A Story No One Knows!
I’m so grateful for this reading and for our amazing cast, band, sound crew, stage manager, the awesome space NoFlex, our producer, our incredible director Joe Barros, my friends and family who came, everyone who helped, and, of course, my amazing collaborator, the bookwriter and composer Hyeyoung Kim for creating this profound story and for always believing in me and my lyrics. I think much of my journey this year has been falling in love with lyric writing in a way I had never been able to access before (even though there are always dark, stressful times with it!) and finding even more confidence with it, and this show was definitely a monumental step in that journey.
So much love to everyone who was a part of this. You are more than just souls passing through!
