Two years ago, toward the end of the COVID-19 epidemic, I'd set a bold goal for myself. I'd just reached by 2000th production. It took me 8 years to get my first 1000 productions and 4 years to get my second 1000 productions.
What was my goal? That it would take only three years to get my next 1000 productions.
Well, I guess I wasn't bold enough because it took only two years (and four months, to be exact). As a matter of fact, I reached that milestone this week as Loyalton High School in Loyalton, CA-- a small ranching community not far from Reno, NV--booked a production of An Enchanted Bookshop Christmas.
This play continues to be one of my evergreen properties, snagging a healthy number of productions year after year after year. And the audience response has been phenomenal. In fact, I just came across a Facebook post where a mom mentioned that her girls couldn't stop talking about the Book Fairy and were begging their parents to take them again.
You can't beat enthusiasm like that.
So how long until I reach 4000 productions? Well, I'm not going to be greedy and expect to get there in a year.
Eighteen months will be fine.
