In February of 2024, I started writing a show I wasn’t sure I was ready to write.
It was personal. Autobiographical. Uncomfortable in places. Funny in others. It required me to go back and look at parts of my life I had already survived — and ask what they meant.
By January of 2025, we gathered in New York City for our first industry presentation. That was the moment I realized this wasn’t just a private excavation. There was a story here. A structure. A pulse. Something that belonged on stage.
Already Perfect was born out of a simple but difficult truth: most of us are still negotiating with our younger selves. We wish certain chapters had gone differently. We replay moments. We carry regret.
But what if the version of you that survived it all is not broken?
What if the person you are right now — unfinished, still growing, still becoming — is already enough?
That became the spine of the piece.
In London, at the King’s Head Theatre, I watched something I had only seen in my imagination stand up under lights. Three actors. One story. A room full of strangers recognizing themselves in it.
The production received nine Fringe Theatre Award nominations and earned four and five-star reviews. But what mattered most to me was what I felt in the room. People leaning forward. People laughing where it hurt. People quiet in places that required honesty.
It was the first time I saw a vision in my head become a fully realized theatrical world.
This program is the printed record of that life-changing moment.
It contains the cast and creative team who helped bring it to life, director’s and writer’s notes, rehearsal photography, and the early footprint of a show that is still evolving.
We hope to return to London. We intend to continue the life of this musical. There will be future productions.
But there will never be another first chapter.
This was the beginning.
If you were there, this is the record.
If you weren’t, this is where it started.
I only have a few copies of the our official souvenir program from the world premiere production.
Grab your copy while you can and maybe we will see you in the next chapter.
Nothing to prove,
Levi
