Director's Statement

We all want to be known. We want someone to truly get 'us' and know the exact thing to do and say to make us feel better. But we're never willing to allow someone close enough to know us completely - to know our sorrows and weaknesses along with our joys and strengths. This - at it's root - is what Sunny in the Dark is about.
