ATO has been around about 3 years now — trying to build and grow and going thru numerous changes — but the end may be in sight. It just doesn’t seem worth it to continue when nobody visits here. Actually, according to site stats, we get a LOT of visitors from all over the world — but nobody ever comments, which makes it seem like nobody ever comes around.

Seriously – Jennivere Song Lee is one of those rare people who can somehow pack more into 20-some-odd years than most people can cram into a lifetime. Just scan her IMDB resume and you’ll get a fair idea of her background, skills, education and experience. It’s enough to inspire neon [...]
Controversial Musical to Benefit Cambodia
Ten years in development, British composer Sarah O’Brien’s “Winds of Angkor” chronicles a forbidden romance between prisoners of Khmer Rouge and its impact on a Western journalist who falls in love with a survivor of the regime.
Thought at first to be “too controversial” by judges of the Vivienne Ellis Prize, “Winds” [...]
OK… forgive the lame pun – but Tracy Cruz is, in fact, Da Bomb.
This 4′10″ singer/songwriter is an explosive talent who’s rapidly catching the discriminating ears of the soul+jazz world. And beyond.
Wait – did I say “soul”? Yes, I did. True, the woods aren’t exactly full of Filipino soul belters (especially altos) – but this [...]
