A passion project is one you love so much you initially work many, many unpaid hours (hours not actually making any money) to create in hopes that you can one day sell.
The creation process of a project of this nature occurs in between making money working on other people's projects or time spent seeking work on on other people's projects. This could be on our unpaid days off, during our normal sleep hours, relaxation and/or diversion hours.
The financial clock ticks away while we (as of now our 2 member team - myself and my wife) work to be invited by a theater or theater company to bring the performance to you, the audience.
Here are some figures of how much we have put out-of-our-personal pockets and, also costs that have been defrayed by your generous support!
Here is also an idea of the accumulating unpaid dedicated hours as of 12/16/19: 782
(when I remember to write it down)
These hours include but are not limited to: actor/director devising/rehearsal process, research & marketing, prop/scenic sourcing & building
Props & Scenic we still have to source:
Lighter
1940s table setting (more elements)
Black back & side drops
Rigging for the drops
Lights
Fedora
Help make it happen!
