"Hey folks,mithrigil and I have just launched a Kickstarter.com fund raising project in order to bring a workshop production of Dogboy & Justine, a new musical about life, love and head injuries, to the stage.
"For those who have been here a long time, you'll know that this project started life as a short play that has had two productions in New York City. With Mith's awesome music and lyrics talent and experience structuring musical theater, we're developing it into a full-length production that includes a diverse, female-focused cast and explores issues of friendship, beauty, sexuality, desire, ability and expectation.
"The way Kickstarter works is that we don't get any funding if we don't reach the minimum we need for the project -- you can't execute on half a budget after all. So, not only are we grateful for any contributions you want to make to this project, but also for any signal boosting you can do. Minimum donation amount is a $1, and you're not charged until fund-raising closes on December 21st, and then only if we reach our goal.
"Finally, I know many of the donation premiums are very NYC-focused (although you can donate no matter where you are!). I want to let you know that we're working on a way to make an online version available for donors of a certain level, so that we can do a digital talk-back with those who are outside the immediate area as well.
"We're looking to get this on the stage in the first half of 2011, and from there tune-up, refine, and bring something bigger and better to NYC via, we hope, a vehicle like NYMF, or a self-managed Off-off Broadway or Off-Broadway production.
"We can't do this without you. And we wouldn't want to."
