No one said art was easy.
The play formerly known as Dating Courtney is now called Holding Court. I was reluctant to change the title because, frankly, I thought it was perfect - it was an accurate description of the show and it was succinct.
But Courtney wasn't thrilled with it. She was, in a way, embarrassed that her name was so prominently displayed.
My argument was that it not only described the show, but also that it’s a showcase for her, so why not put her name in the title?
But when I spit out 'holding court' during a brain-storming session it seemed no less accurate, and still included Courtney's name, thought more subtlety.
So the name, the postcard and the play itself have gone through multiple drafts. The first two will stay the same; the play still has a few tweaks to go.
So, here’s the newest (and final) postcard for Holding Court.
