Row L Seat 1 2014 Highlights

Wow - what a year it's been! With the end of 2014 just hours away, it's hard to believe that Row L Seat 1 is almost a year old! In some ways it feels like I just started blogging about theatre last week, while in other ways it seems like I've been doing it forever.

From Central PA to Broadway, my year was full of theatre adventures. Here are a few Row L Seat 1 highlights from 2014...

January brought my first post! In February I jumped on the online quiz bandwagon by creating the "Which Broadway Musical Are You?" quiz. In March, who could forget about Adela Dazeem? (John Travolta hopes everyone has forgotten about that by now.) April brought one of my favorite topics, Introducing Kids to Theatre.

Most of May I spent trying to win that insane contest to win tickets to the Tony Awards dress rehearsal. I still have nightmares about it! While I ultimately came in fourth place (which I didn't find to be too shabby out of thousands of people), I sure learned a lot from the experience!

The Tony Awards were in June. I made my first attempt at predictions, and I have to admit I did better than I thought I would do, ultimately correctly guessing 12 out of 26. Also in June, my family went to see Aladdin on Broadway. This was the first time in New York City for my youngest son, and he even helped me review the production!

My youngest son enjoyed his first trip to New York City, complete with tickets to see Aladdin.

In July, I shared a few items on my Broadway bucket list. And in August I debuted a series of posts with ideas I have that I think would sell more tickets on Broadway.

In September, my Theatre Review page went live, followed by the arrival of my business cards in October. (It only took me nine months to get them, but it was worth the wait. Even though it's just a little card, it makes me feel "official!")

Getting business cards was an exciting accomplishment for me!

To end the year, December brought the inaugural issue of "Intermission," the Row L Seat 1 Central PA Newsletter!

I feel like I've come so far since that very first post almost a year ago. And I know 2015 is going to be even more exciting (I have some big plans, which will be revealed in the next week or two!).

Thank you to everyone who continues to read my blog, like and share my posts on social media, and support Row L Seat 1. I truly appreciate it, and I hope you all have a happy and healthy 2015 filled with lots of theatre!
