I'll be posting here my various thoughts, quips, reviews, updates and news of upcoming events and things.  This is a very creative time for me and much is materializing - check current projects @ JCGafford.com.  Perhaps most exciting, I'm very much nearer now to being able to record my first CD!!  Yippee.  Sooo much more to come.

In the meantime, here's a question for ya:  Would you rather have someone agree with you and tell you what you want to hear, or have someone challenge you and your ideas???

Its amazing to me when I take the time to consider the various journeys that have been involved with my theatre career.  It all started unexpectedly but completely, with trepidation but unabashedly as well.  Ultimately, even when in the midst of production challenges, I am always eternally grateful for the work I do.  My work has brought pain, frustration and dissatisfaction to my life for sure.  BUT, much moreso, my work has brought joy, amazing people, extraordinary experiences, unexpected doors of opportunity and basic fulfillment.  Martha Graham hit the nail on the head in a letter to Agnes DeMille, "No artist is pleased.  There is no satisfaction whatever at any time.  There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction; a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others."  I'd have it no other way.
