“Fall/Winter Festival allowed me to see my musical on its feet in front of a live audience. This experience is an important step although challenging step in development. The Festival folks gave me a lot of help, answering my questions quickly and helpfully. When I received responses to my questions, I had the feeling that I was talking to a fellow writer—because I was! The performance space selected by the Festival was very nice—a real theater—and my audiences were able to enjoy a professionally performed show in a professional venue. I will always be grateful to the Festival for giving Dragon Slayer its first home.”
