But let's go a little before that....
A young man approached an established artistic director up in Wellington about hosting one of his play readings in their space. This was after participating in their short play reading festival a few months back. They agreed. But he was missing a director for his reading, so he asked this artistic director if they would steward this presentation. They said yes.
The play was The Trip to Bountiful, the playwright, Horton Foote. The artistic director was Paula Sackett. Location was the Studio Theatre of Wellington and Conundrum Stages was given its debut.
Since then, Paula and I have done Bountiful three times. There were other readings after that, followed by variety showcases, poetry showcases, a comedy program, anniversary show, etc. and coming up, a music concert, a theater festival and another poetry program.
But it wouldn't have started if I didn't have that one person who was willing to give me a chance...Happry Anniversary, Conundrum Stages!
And thanks, Paula!
