Hello Donors,
First of all thanks for helping us make it this far in the process of bringing our American/Swedish Opera Project to completion. It has been an amazing process that would not have happened without you.
To date we have used your donations to fund our design process and continue the planning process for our final performance. In the past few reports we have shown you examples of some of the designs and introduced you to the designers.
We are adding a Documentary Filmmaker to the creative process of completing this piece. Their work will incorporate some of the many hours of footage from our workshops and past work-in-progress performances as well as interviews of as many of the 49 artists who have participated to make this piece come to life. We are making this film as the culmination of the work on this piece as our "premiere" if you will. It will act as a companion piece along side a live performance event. It is the next step in the evolution of the process as of this piece; as artists we never stop creating - every moment is a creation.
In the attached photo you see us at work at the Västerås Concert House where much of our work in Sweden took place.
We hope you will continue your support for our work on this monumental international collaboration. Thank you again for all of your past support and we look forward to seeing you in the audience.

Thanks, Michael
