We met Hannah Crawford while in a show with the Bluegrass Theatre Guild, titled Big River. She was just a kid then--11 years old, dressed as one of the townspeople.

Afterwards, we couldn't get Hannah out of our heads. We asked if she would like to premiere with us in "The Toymaker", and original stage play written by Ashley. She perfected her role as "Mouse"...one of those annoying toys with a button on their hand that sings a bad rendition of a carol.

Now a teenager, it's obvious that Hannah has grown up, both in maturity and age.

She was our production assistant, always standing by with her slate and script, and also portrayed the role of Brooke Jones.

It's strange to hear someone so young with such a huge vocabulary, with insightful ideas that made even us directors go, "Hmm...that might work..."

She brought a lot to the table, helped take the edge off of filming with her adorable nature and funny stories, and even had some DIY (do it yourself) ideas. Such as the cat tent thing...We won't go into that.

Needless to say, although I'm saying it anyway because she deserves the credit, we would be lost without "lil bit". She's a beautiful young lady and will steal the hearts of many when she's old enough to be the leading lady.

Although I'm not quite sure how I'll be able to cope--I freaked out when she started wearing make up.
