First day of rehearsals and the first read-through of the script. I remember
0:12
feeling surrounded by so much talent and just feeling so excited to watch this
0:16
production come to life. The first time I saw the theater we were introduced it
0:21
was a big kind of reveal and when that that screen from the stage just lifted
0:28
the cast it was electric. I'll never forget finishing that opening performance and getting back to the dressing room with Thomas and both of us
0:37
just like wordlessly just hugging because it felt like we'd come through
0:41
this huge thing together. Harry was getting his wand during the final
0:46
battle dropped it and then reached down into the audience for someone to hand up
0:52
his wand and someone handed them their personal elder wand. The crowd erupted and
0:57
finished the battle with the audience's wand. To be a part of a production this big and having it be Harry Potter which I
1:09
was a fan of from before is it was one of those moments where it's like I'm
1:12
like I'm actually kind of doing what I want to do with my life and it was like
1:17
just like a really great exciting moment. Every day when you're kind of coming into work and you see families walking
1:27
down the street and they're wearing their robes or they've got their house scarves getting a chance to perform for them seeing them in the front row it
1:35
just it just fills your heart with so much joy. There's some people who have
1:39
seen this show like over 20 times and to know that they love it that much and
1:46
that we've made an impact on their life is huge. I'm working with some amazing Canadian actors that this early on in my career
1:55
is insane to even get the chance to share space with let alone a stage
2:02
This cast, this company, this crew, the people behind stage, in front of stage
2:07
everywhere to do with this theatre they are the best people in the world
2:13
From enthusiastic fans and audience alike thank you for your enthusiasm it has
2:18
certainly fueled these last few months
