Director Statement

Hi. I’m Stan Sellers, the writer for The Trailer. This is a story, one of many, I performed at storytelling venues in around Los Angeles a few years ago. It’s personal because the story is about one of the kids in the name of my production company, TwoKidsNoSleep: my daughter. While her trailing didn’t keep my wife and I up at night, picking up her trail sometimes did. For us it was frustrating, irritating and several more -tings that I can't think of right now because I’m writing this in the middle of the night due to lack of sleep. You see, some things never change. But in the end as with all the phases kids go through and eventually get over, except in this case, even at thirty years old she hasn't, I still love her madly and wouldn’t trade those early years for all the tidiness in the entire world.
