My daughter Viv loves theater.

She appreciates all theater but she certainly knows what she feels close to and what she responds to.

And you know, technical rehearsals in the theater are not for the faint of heart.

Vivienne would watch the show and give me the most amazing notes.

Like, incredible eye.

So, it was a wonderful, wonderful support, and also, obviously, made the work better.
