Still Not Sure
I still don’t know how I got home after Halloween in 2012. The pair of glasses I lost must have been a sacrifice to Hecate. But I know the hotel did help me find correspondence with Sondheim. And assist me in meeting, falling in love with, and proposing to my wife. So feel free to […]

To A Place That Felt Like Home
I will never forget the feeling of stepping into the McKittrick Hotel for the first time. I always say I wish I could bottle up that feeling and keep it with me forever. Though I found this show fairly recently, it has come to mean so much to me. I have never felt any piece […]

Sonnet
Last night I dreamed of Manderley again The music led me deep into the maze I traced my hand along the walls and then The bar appeared, alive with lights ablaze I found myself within the dark hotel A twisting knot of threads around my heart A pulsing beat, the clanging of a bell A […]

Boy Witch
Thank you to Boy Witch for shaping my identity and helping me overcome dysphoria and feel confident in wearing eyeliner. What an utterly beautiful character. It’s been a pleasure to experience his story.

Thank You
The first time I checked into the McKittrick Hotel I was in a profound stage of disconnection in my life. As I’ve found myself returning, I have been pulled warmly into a world and a community that values connection above all else. Connection to one’s body and how that can be used to communicate with […]

When I first visited, I didn’t know what to expect.
Dearest McKittrick residents, staff, and fellow guests, When I first visited, I didn’t know what to expect. I wandered, sometimes aimlessly… sometimes with purpose. I was scared. Bewildered. Amused. Intrigued. Walking into a universe separate from your own is a rare experience… and one that drew me back again… and again. Over time, that world […]

Farewell Now and Forever
Dearest McKittrick, From the very first moment I crossed your shadowed threshold, a profound enchantment swept over me. Your corridors whisper stories, your dimly lit rooms flicker with the ghosts of a thousand enchanted evenings. Each visit leaves a trace of mystery clinging to my soul, haunting me with memories so vivid, they seem crafted […]

When I step into the McKittrick Hotel
When I step into the McKittrick Hotel I make a bargain with myself, with the performers, with the music, with my fellow audience members, with the walls themselves that I will let go. That I will live in wordless emotional abandon for three hours. That I will give all of myself to that moment, to […]

Separated
Separated, stumbling through the dark maze, hidden behind a mask, stepping out of the elevator, whisked behind a closing door, and up the stairs, we’ll forever remember the time we spent Together.

I feel there are not nearly enough words
Dearest McKittrick, I feel there are not nearly enough words, or that the language doesn’t even exist, for me to adequately describe what the last 12 years have meant to me in my relationship with you. The safe harbor you have provided me through various life stages, the way you have opened my eyes to […]
