There are no half-measures with producing. You either commit to it fully, by which I mean emotionally, financially and in every other way, or you don't bother. I have a theatre booked for three weeks March-April and I also plan to be in Edinburgh for all of August.
One effect of this is that the amount of time that I can devote to consultancy in 2009 is already seven weeks less than my clients might imagine. But if I don't afford the theatre project equal priority in the diary then I will fail.
