The Theater Bug

Last night Katie and I finally got over to see "The Blowin of Baille Gall" over at the Irish Arts Center on 51st and 10th.

I had written music for this show when it was back in Boston and luckily for me they decided that it was the right score for the NYC production as well. I put the score online earlier this year and didn't hear much back from the folks doing the production. This makes me a bit scared at times, because I hate giving my music to another sound designer. Again, I got lucky though as the sound desinger on this production, Julie Pittman, I had known from many a previous Boston production.

Anyhow, the show was fabulous. Disturbing and fabulous. Julie did a GREAT job with my score, and I hope we're able to work "together" again someday soon. Katie and I went out for a pint with the cast after the show, and it made me really miss working in the theater more.

Katie and I are in a holding pattern at the moment with her job situation. Not sure where we're going to be landing so I can't really take that many theatrical jobs at the moment. In fact, I even had to back out of a production in Boston that I would have LOVED to have been a part of.

It'll happen again soon...
