Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I remember it was about 11 o'clock at night. I had just finished a final dress rehearsal of Jesus Christ Superstar which was due to open the following night. I got a call from my brother at the stage door of the theatre saying that someone had crashed into the WTC. I was like are you sure about that? And at that moment we were all turning on our mobile phones (as we cannot have them switched on during a performance) and all these sms's were coming on everyone's phone I couldn't believe it. I jumped into my car and made the 15 minute drive home listening to the radio. It must have been not long after the incident because all the radio stations were just receiving the news and no one knew what the hell was going on. A few minutes later the man on the radio said that another plane had just hit the other tower. I couldn't believe it. I walked through my front door and I from the look on my brothers face and my girlfriends I knew that world war three had just begun. Staying up all hours of the morning I am sure it was 5 am I decided to get ready for work. I didn't really feel like going to work. I don't think anyone really did that day. At work there was an eery silence around the shopping centre. No one was walking around or coming into the store and I didn't blame them. I walked down to the newsagent and asked about a paper. They had papers printed lying on the counter. Obviously the deadline for these pages was long before the attack. She told me that there would be another paper issued around about 11am so I decided to head back to work. A day that will live in infamy. I will never forget it and I don't think anyone could ever forget the images from that day. The general feeling with everyone I talked to was just utter disbelief. God bless all the people involved with the helping on that day I don't think anything can be done to show how much everyone appreciates what you guys did that day and are still doing today.
