Our political performance in Iowa never saw the light of day. The excuses I have for that are as follows: It was too difficult to plan a performance taking place in Iowa with performers residing in Chicago, Detroit, and New York, especially given that we have never attempted to create an original piece before.
There. We failed. We didn't set out to do what we planned.
And that's ok.
I could let this bug me but there's no point to that. I gotta get up on the horse and keep pursuing happiness.
I don't want to let this project die, though. I want to keep going with it and see if I can finally get this out of my system. I care about politics and I care about my home state's influence in the political process.
Over the past year, I saw three politicians: Mike Huckabee, Martin O'Malley, and Chris Christie; the latter I actually got to ask a question.
So while I suffered a defeat, the battle isn't over. Gotta keep going.
