Skye Cone IveyHOST
I'm curious, can you tell us a little bit more about the birth of this piece and what made you decide to musicalize the Hallmark holiday movie?

Lara FilipGUEST
I mean, I, you've said it before, but I always sort of credit the birth of this, this musical to my ADHD.

Lara FilipGUEST
And that's, it's so real because I, you know, I, I have 400 ideas rolling around in my head at the same time at all times and I hyper fixate on things.

Lara FilipGUEST
So I've learned to channel this for good and it's become sort of a superpower for me.

You're a multi-hyphenate artist and wear many different hats, but tell us about how you brought all of that to the process of creating this piece and specifically what it means to you to be a woman writer creating roles for women over 40.
