We can, We must and We will eradicate Breast Cancer in our lifetime.

Being a woman of a certain age, I remember when President John F. Kennedy stated that “we would land a man on the moon by the end of the decade.” Initially there were a lot of people in different organizations and parts of the country that said that could not be done. But an interesting phenomenon happened - soon everyone around the country began to work towards that goal. Because someone was bold enough to state that as a goal, no one wanted to fail.

That is how I feel about the tag line for “Breast In Show” - We can, We must and We will eradicate Breast Cancer in our lifetime. There have been numerous private, public groups, international organizations and government agencies pursuing a wide range of research and treatment options - sometimes in conjunction with one another and sometimes alone. I believe that the time has come to put a stake in the ground and to rally all the resources to proudly rid the world of a disease that affects so many people in the next 30 years.

We are so close - let us make this our goal and legacy to our daughters and grandchildren!

130 Days to Show Debut

There are only 130 days until Breast in Show debuts in Washington DC.  This is such an exciting project that everyone I talk to wants to contribute in some way.  Today I am meeting with the woman who designed the Breast Cancer stamp for the USPS who has agree to work pro bono on the logo for the show. How cool is that?

I have also been working with Jennifer Abernethy who wrote the most recent book on The Complete Idiots Guide to Social Medial Marketing on the strategy for marketing the show - we are going viral!

And finally I highly recommend the current show at Signature Theatre "Title of Show"  about 2 guys writing a Broadway musical - a subject near and dear to my heart!

Stay tuned for more developments......

A New Show

"Breast In Show" is a new live 90 minute stage show being written and performed to mobilize people to believe that we can, we must and we will eradicate Breast Cancer in our lifetime. The first production of this show that tells the stories of different people affected by this awful disease will be October 15 and October 16, 2010 in Washington DC.

I have spent the last 5 months interviewing survivors, people in treatment, family members, friends, co-workers and medical professionals about their experiences with Breast Cancer.

More than 1.4 Million people worldwide will be diagnosed with BC this year.

I believe that this disease is the scourge of our lifetime and that we must make our voices heard that the moment has come to end this disease - for us, for our mothers and for our daughters.
