We had five incredible girls read this horrible intense villain speech at us, five more incredible girls sing about the destruction of beauty and going out with pride.

Then four gifted, beautiful young men auditioned for our love interest, with the incredible actor who we'd already cast as his boyfriend/the male protagonist,

The first three were so good that we honestly thought we were going to have to write another scene for them to do, it was that close in quality? Then the last one blew us away.

Literally, when he finished, I had to clap loud and just look away, because my eyes were full of tears, then as he left the room for us to talk about it, I turned around and the choreographer, the producer, and

the musical director were all three of them red faced and eyes streaming.

It's been fucking insane. I can't believe how beautiful these people are, I really can't.
