"The gift was ours to borrow." - Diana Morales in A Chorus Line We hope you enjoyed each gift we had to share with you this summer. It seems as each year comes and goes, a singular motif comes to light. This summer, the theme was home. But not home in a physical sense, but rather finding home in the people around you. Annie found home in Daddy Warbucks. The animals of Madagascar found home in each other. Shrek found home in Fiona. Jeremy Jacob found home in his own backyard. George found home in his friends The Man in the Yellow Hat and Chef Pisghetti. Belle found her home in the beast. And Quasimodo found his home in Esmeralda. You see, home doesn't have to be a place. And that rings true for Summer Stage. We find home in the people around us, the people who we work together with to share a gift that started with just words on a page and grew into something magical. Summer Stage will always be there to welcome you home. The magic doesn't end when our eight weeks are up. The magic is within you all year long. And next summer, we can't wait to build a brand new home with all of you. Thank you for a magical, breathtaking, and joyous Season 42.
This is home. It's happened again. And we won't stop. Congrats to everyone who received a Harry Award tonight. You make this place home.
