THANK YOU

To the SoLow Festival, for existing, for making me believe this is something I could do, for encouraging me every step of the way.

To everyone who came out to support me, or even just wanted to but were deterred by schedules and/or weather.

To all the ipod lenders who made this show open beyond the smartphone community: Alex Bechtel,  Rachel Cheetham Richard, Danny Hajdo, Ryan Henaghan, and Gabe Longo.

To the neighborhood of Queen Village, especially the very tolerant residents of South Hancock Street, the kids at Number One China who dragged their entire families out to watch the park dance every night (and even yelled "Encore!" once), Philadelphia Java Company for the most fabulous pre-show hyper-sweetened iced coffees, Kennett and For Pete's Sake for being great spots for both meetings and celebrations.

To Rachel Cheetham Richard and to Rob Emanuele for taking photos, and additionally to Rob for filming the dress rehearsal, and then creating the loveliest little promo video ever.

But mostly, to my creative team:

To my mom, for answering all our questions despite being totally wary, for allowing us to take over her living room, for picking up lines last minute and improving like a genius, for letting us back in at the end of the show.

To Sarah Gladwin Camp, for just offering to help out and then diving in to a the best full-out pop dance and movementy wandering around.

To Julius Ferraro, for being not just willing but enthused to try anything, from crazy dance moves to roof climbing.

To Liz Green, for being psyched about this project from day one, for learning garage band in like a week, for buying headphone splitters at the last minute.

And to my brother, for being inspirational in all the best ways, for putting up with all this craziness, and mostly for being my sibling friend again.
