ARTISTIC DIRECTOR NOTES from WORKING

“If you have built castles in the sky, your work need not be lost, that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.”

- Henry David Thoreau

I love theatre because of the electrical current that pulsates through the creation and spirit of art. It creates a love affair between artist and audience—a mesmerizing dance of brilliance in which human emotions are shared and transcended. Theatre is a precious gift that illuminates humanity. One tiny moment of human interaction onstage can change a life… can lift a soul… can inspire a movement… can open up a world of unlimited possibilities to the eyes and hearts of the beholders. It is through the sacred art of theatre that I learned in the most magical ways that anything and everything is possible in life.

The Transcendence Theatre Company is dedicated to empowering the world through our lives and our art. We traveled to Punta Banda to build a foundation for a dream and mission that will undoubtedly inspire and empower the lives of millions worldwide. Just as The Gertrude Pearlman Theatre was built brick by brick through an immense love, we too are building a company and a new, holistic approach to the performing arts that will become a powerful and extraordinary force of goodness in our world. It is awe-inspiring to dedicate our lives towards building that castle in the sky.

I speak on behalf of our entire company when I say that the days we have spent here in your incredible town are the fullest, most passionate, most grounded, and most powerful days that we have ever lived on this earth. This is just the beginning of a lifetime of adventures and service to humanity. I am so honored to join together with my dear and brilliant friends for this great purpose. We are the vessels through which the future of the world shines. It’s time for all of us to take life and art to new levels of unbelievable brilliance. It is time for Transcendence!
