This song from Central Park has meant a ton to me since I first heard it, and I had an idea in my head on the story that I wanted to tell with it. I really identified with the character as a creator and the pressure of trying to figure out how to present myself. It was really cathartic getting to bring this to life. Hope you enjoy.

Also, be sure to check out Central Park. It’s a LOVELY frickin show, with amazing music.

Starting off my thank yous, gotta give a BIG BIG thank you to my friend, Calypso May, for helping to come up with and teach me choreography for this song. It was SUCH a fun experience getting to do that, and I can not WAIT to do it again with you.
