Dear Friends,
We made it through our first day of performances at APAP and had a really wonderful day. We had people in APAP badges come, which was an incredible feat by itself. However, we also found that people in general were excited to see our theater. We had friends from work show up, people waiting for auditions in other studios join us and people from off the street - innocent tourists, looking for a good time at the theater in NYC - give our Tempest a try. It was a really delightful atmosphere and we had a great time doing the show again and again and again... I think we did our fifteen minute showcase nine times - plus a warm up/run through before our 2pm opening... so 10 times, really.
We especially appreciated the little girls who came into our audience at one point. The delight on their faces was more satisfying than any of the APAP badges that graced our seats. We find we enjoy performing for kids and we realize just how family friendly our show actually is.
We had the opportunity to film our showcase thanks to Holly's brother, Will, who continues to be our techie and lifesaver. We hope to put that up under the video footage page on our site - so that you can have an idea of what we've been working on/working towards as of late.
Btw - we do have a Tempest Ladies website now that our own techie, Will created. You can visit it at: tempestladies.com
Looking forward to another day at APAP tomorrow - will keep you updated!
Best,
TTL
