After both had graduated, the two took on a great adventure, the greatest adventure a young artist could imagine: New York City! The days were filled with coffee shops and working for various small theatre companies; it was an experience that helped them grow and become more defined in their art. Alas, Lizabe moved back to the Twin Cities to pursue her Stage Managing and RaeEllen went on to gain her MFA in Scenic Design; all the while, still staying in contact and visiting each other.
