The big picture
Do you do puzzles? Big, table-covering jigsaw puzzles?
You get down the big box from the high shelf in the closet, and pour all the pieces out on a table. You hope they're all still there. Over the next few hours or days or weeks, you pick up a piece or two and plunk them into what you hope is the right spot, and then add a few more. Other people come along to help when they can, and pop in a few more pieces, or move some you didn't have in quite the right place...and slowly, slowly, an image starts to form. You look at the pile of pieces left and wonder if there are enough there to complete it.
There comes a moment when you have one piece left and there is a hole just that size and you gently set the final piece in place and press and....there is a gorgeous picture! And you walk around the table, gazing at it from all angles, looking back at the box and marveling at how it all came together and hugging the people who helped you. You and your friends have made something beautiful out of a bunch of bizarre bits...and it is magic!
Last night was like that! All the bits of "The Margaret Ghost" came together on stage! Woot!
Only three more shows, and then we'll take it all apart...come see it before it's gone!
