I have a friend named Aaron. He is a creative, energetic,
gentle giant of a guy. “The Green Candle Theatre Company” of Burlington, Vt has
become his playground for creativity, in which he is the president of these
local artisans. This is a troupe of actors who perform only original material
and all this is on practically a non-extant budget.
Aaron just finished a
long running show called “The Napoleon 2012”. This show ran for impressive 6
weeks. I’m not sure how successful the show was but I was impressed by it. I had a unique point of view due to the fact
that I knew Aaron. Some of the scenes were very “Aaronfied”. In other words,
Aaron brought his own distinct personality into it. There were times were Katie
and I were the only ones laughing, because of the “Aaronfied” scenes.

There was an introduction in the beginning of the brochure
to this creative endeavor that really hit home to me (which my wife pointed out to me). My interpretation
to it is the following: Dream. Follow-up to those dreams. Strive to make the
dreams a reality. Don’t worry about doubt or criticism. These are concepts that
I must follow. I thank my friend Aaron for reminding me of these wonderful
ideas. I will strive to live up to these tenants! Thanks, Brother!
