About me
While January 4th will appear as a devastating, grueling loss to the production all of us love so much, I think of it as more of a celebration than anything. 13 the musical made history on Broadway, becoming the first ever show here with a cast of all kids. 13 did not disappoint. Since previews begun, the energy, determination, poise and talent visible in each and every character rung to the heart of all audience members, young and old, gleaming in their seats, stunned by the pure excellence demonstrated by youths on stage. It was announced on November 21 that 13 would close only weeks later, and I, along with a countless number of 13 lovers were struck by agony and an empty feeling of loss. The musical score and writing is easy to connect to, as the lives of any teenager is put on stage. We grew so close to the show and even some cast members, generously offering their time to us and I really appreciate it. I know that I have been touched by all of you and your performances delivered, and I have confidence and excitement to see your journeys ahead. On every profile page on this website for 13 fanatics, users are asked what turning 13 means to them and while there are a diverse range of responses to this question that appears simple; in my mind, being 13 is progressing one step further in life and it's about growth. There may be bumps in the road along the way, but being 13 is about getting curveballs thrown at you, and swinging at them. Life's not always going to be easy, and I think that defines what turning 13 really is. It's a time for happiness and maturation, and this show has certainly made me very happy, and its departure on Broadway is just an upsetting happening we all must accept. I am so glad I had the opportunity to watch this show grow, and it leaves us with warm contentment in our hearts. Thank you for everyone involved with this unbelievable production, 13 will never be forgotten.
