Note From the Director
As a little boy I became infatuated with movies and television characters. My mother asked me what I wanted to be when I grow up. I said I wanted to be Superman. When she informed me that he was not a real person but instead an actor, I said “Well then I want to be an actor.” In 7th grade I got to be in my first musical production and from there I realized that the magic of theatre would always be a part of my life. Each production I have been a part of has taught me life lessons that changed and shaped my perspective on life. This production has lots of great lessons that have become my mantra.
1. Think positive.
2. The world tastes good when you mix it with love.
3. Too much of anything is a bad thing.
4. We all have a Golden Ticket if only we are comitted to finding it.
To my cast and crew: I am so unbelievably proud of you all! We have accomplished so much in such a short amount of time. Your hard work and dedication has and will continue to pay off. You have begun a legacy here at Mae C. Jemison that you will one day look back on with pride. You have literally poured your blood, sweat and tears into this production to create the magic of theatre for all of northwest Huntsville. My dream was to bring live theatre to the northwest side of town where I was born and raised. Thank you for making my dream come true.
Sincerely,
Jameel Lewis
