...ALWAYS REMEMBER

Hello Lords and Ladies,

Our deepest apologies for taking so long to post - but it means the world to both of us that you guys actually READ these! It's kinda been our diary for ourselves to document the incredible experiences we've had in the last few months, and it's an honor to have gotten to share them with you - all the way through the end of this chapter.
The Signature production closed on Sunday, February 17 to a sold-out audience, and was a beautiful way to end a beautiful run. The boys' performances grew so much since we began this process, and by the end it truly was THEIR show, which was another one of those honors that as a writer you're not sure what you did to deserve, but are thankful for all the same. 
One of the make or break parts of doing theatre is the people you get to (or have to) spend your time with - and we couldnt have gotten luckier. After the show, and before Nick had to head back to New York that evening, our incredible tech crew WROTE and PERFORMED a spoof version of the show to a sold-out crowd of their own:

GLORY DAYS: A Tech Musical, starring Bway Veteran (and neighboring Signature show THE TRICK PART star) Marty Moran, and our amazing crew!

Class Picture: GLORY DAYS Team '08

It was so sad to leave the theatre after such a transformational couple of months, but it looks like the show is going to be able to have a life because of the opportunities Eric and Signature gave us, and that's something we never ever expected. This whole process, step by step, has surpassed even our most unrealistic expectations, and we hope to continue to push ourselves past what we expect we're capable of, for as long as you are willing to come see whatever it is we make. 
So, thank you. For coming, for supporting, for listening, for reading our little blogs and for giving a couple of new guys a chance to say things our way. We plan to continue to do just that. 
Check back here in the next couple weeks if you're interested in what's coming next for the show! It's gonna be an awesome year.
All our love and thanks for an unforgettable World Premiere!!

James 'n Nick

PS. In case you didnt get to see it, take a look n' listen to your very own GLORY DAYS boys singing the national anthem to Kobe Bryant (and 30,000 other people) at the Washington Wizards game this past Sunday, 2/13!

Hey guys, I unfortunately didn't get to see the show, but I've heard so many great things about it, and look forward to seeing a future production. Congrats on a great run!
