●Bill Bowers (homie from Broadway) coming on Thursday.
●Phenomenal that a program like The Castle exists. An artist has to be prepared for the
rejection from audience. To help other people avoid what they encountered. Art is viable
resource to inspire gain perspective and learn things you didn’t knew before. Universal
message Who we are and What did we do we tragedy. How do I move on? It breaks
the definition of theater that we created. What if they hired 4 actors for this? No.
Someone would say go tell my story but some will refuse. The impact of a real person is
more (on audience) than someone acting for them. Who am I today is the main question?
Impact with the castle that makes people want to me more than just a felon more than a
prisoner. There is no stakes.

Avoid sun. Breakfast porch, lunch porch and dinner. Women did not let the sun touch
them, they did not go out unescorted( family member). 21 year old left alone big thing.
