All I want is a room somewhere . . .
Eliza Doolittle wasn’t the only one who needed a little place of her own. Cinderella needed her “own little corner,” as well. And that big dreamer Pippin needed a corner too. Of course, a room and a chair weren’t good enough for that dude. Oh no, his corner had to be in the sky.
Everyone needs a place where they belong . . . but especially musical theater heroines and heroes . . . and the people that create them.
That’s why we had an open-door policy for creatives to come and work rent-free at my rehearsal studios. Unfortunately, my studios got swallowed up in my move (sad face!) and are no more.
Luckily, there’s another place for you creatives to go if you need your own little corner to work on a song or a show, or connect with other people who are trying to do what you are trying to do (change the world, one musical at a time). It’s called The New York Song Space, and it was founded by Kara Unterberg “with the idea that when creative people connect with creative people, creativity flourishes.”

You know what’s the best that could happen?
You create the next My Fair Lady, Cinderella, or Pippin.
