i am truly so beyond proud and grateful that this project came to fruition. from an idea that came to me at 3 am during the summer when i couldn’t sleep, to seeing final bows and hearing the audience cheering, it blows my mind. i am forever thankful to the Shakespeare Society of Berkeley (specifically arya), for trusting me and giving me the chance to make something magical. as a first time director, i couldn’t be more amazed at the group we pulled together. there were moments i doubted my ability, got too caught up in little mistakes, and wondered if i was wayyyy in over my head, but the cast and crew showed up with so much passion, love, and determination, always making me laugh, and it would bring me back to the reason i wanted to do this, for them. thank you to my lovely cast and crew for making my directorial debut so magical, fulfilling, and truly out of this world. whether it was your first show, first show at berkeley, or your last, i am grateful for you all. to the audiences; friends, family, class mates, who all wanted to support us and this production, thank you. thank you to my parents, siblings, and jon-michael for not only showing up but reminding me to be proud of the work i have done. it has been a wonderful journey and one that will highlight my senior year at berkeley. thank you, thank you, thank you.
