I Got Fired Update: One week in!

Well we're one week into the I Got Fired Kickstarter campaign. We're 65% funded with 18 days remaining. What an amazing feeling. Its exciting and humbling at the same time. 

CLICK HERE TO DONATE TO I GOT FIRED!

It's also a little terrifying with the list of things that Liz Ulmer and I have to accomplish before Oct 23 (or 24, tbd). Here’s what we have to get done.

• Hire lots of folks. Musical Director, Casting Director, Stage Manager etc

• Build a fantastic cast capable of a) making me look vaguely competent as an actor and b) being able to attract more investor/producer interest than my mug

• Book a performance space where we can have our killer band. This means a great sound system to mic and mix the band and cast live.

• Hire a kick-ass band.

• Build all the SWAG we promised on Kickstarter, posters, pins etc.

• Book rehearsal space

• Attempt to build a list of rich people. Hmm… Where does one find them? Do they have a park or something where they all hang out?

• Raise another $1500

• Oh right… finish the latest draft of the book.

•  Do a decade’s worth of work on the score. Each song needs to be notated, updated and formatted for the cast and the band.

•  Build a time-machine to accomplish all of this. Maybe Marty McFly knows Sibelious?

•  LOSE WEIGHT. Nobody likes fat “Keith”. More on this later.

Well, lots more to come. I’m over-the-moon with what we’ve been able to accomplish with the help and support of so many amazing people. 

Let me add some folks to the list! If you’re on there already, that cuz you’re double-awesome.
