I have begun the process of constructing a Parade Float which will include animatronic puppetry, although I am still heavily engaged in publishing and crafting an online presence for the e-Storybook. I'm thinking along the lines of moving from the Parade environment into the Feastival and Environmental theatre arenas, before approaching any theatre. Stepping into the Legit environment brings a debt load that makes it questionable, uless you know the audience had been developed to support those expenses. I'm not willing to fund that operation via traditional methods without the audience to back it up. So I'm taking a more gradual approach to building the audience, starting with publishing. I am open to other options offered by participants, so long as those opinions bring with them significant funding. I have a significant overhead for the studio which needs to be satisfied and that is the priority.
More later. AG
