The trip to this wonderful place began as usual on the LIRR (Long Island Railroad.) Here I am excited about departing.
And here I am few moments later after they announced that we will be delayed in our departure.
But no worries! I have learned that while NYC never sleeps, she sometimes runs late so leaving early in order to get where one is going is essential. I made it into Penn Station where I would take the Amtrak to Harrisburg, PA. A quick three-hour trip. We made a stop in Elizabethtown, PA made famous by the film starring Orlando Bloom. What is he up to these days?
The trip was ideal with large and comfy seating, working wifi and kind conductors. As we got closer and closer to Harrisburg, the final stop, this one took a brief rest as he must have worked a long shift and needed a little shut-eye. I won't tell anyone, sir.
Downtown Harrisburg is charming and quaint. The company has been nothing, but extraordinary and I highly recommend that any singer that can, make the trip and audition. They treat you like royalty!! And did I mention that the hall is beautiful and singing in it feels great?
And here is the view from my lovely room at the hotel. The hotel is conveniently located near food and is in a cool neighborhood downtown. We are in walking distance of the theater, but the staff has insisted on picking us up and taking us to and from rehearsal. I also like that the rehearsal process has been fun, fast and filled with great music making. Well played Harrisburg, well played!
Peace,
Eric
