Nick Ruddock on planning

… experience is like a long drive without the need for GPS. It’s driving a route that I have driven 100’s of times before. I would be totally familiar with the surroundings, my schedule, my route etc. I can hit traffic, or even face a diversion and I will still reach my destination. Better yet, previous experience of the journey even allows me to anticipate problems, and avoid them by taking alternative roads. All the signs are in place and easy for me to read.

My inexperienced drive would have me totally reliant on the GPS. Traffic and diversions would completely throw me. I would be driving down unfamiliar territory, where I couldn’t interpret the signs or directions clearly. …

Can you see the similarities between these journeys and coaching?

Cirque Broadway Bound

… planning to take over a Broadway stage for a long-running production that combines musical theater and acrobatics.

The company, which was acquired this spring by a group of private equity investors, said that the production, to be called “Paramour,” represented one step in a broader effort to expand its presence in New York and in the world of theater. Cirque plans to spend $25 million to mount the show at the Lyric Theater, one of the largest Broadway houses, and said it would run indefinitely after opening next spring.

The company is also working with NBC on a televised production of “The Wiz,” which is aiming for Broadway during the 2016-17 season, and is planning to bring one of its traveling big-tent shows, “Kurios,” to New York late next year. …
