The piece is titled "Sing Soft, Sing Loud," written by Toni McConnell. It's a short piece and I would love you to read it, so I won't divulge. Suffice it to say, I told myself: I need to see a theater version of it.
I don't recall how I found her...but somehow the next moment Toni was on the other line & she says "ok."
Back then I was with this multicultural super-rainbow troupe Absolute Theater. Our annual "Urban Fairy Tale Festival" was gonna be at Chelsea Playhouse.
