So, by the time Wendy wanted to join the circus, the timing was just not right.  “Had this call come a year earlier, it would’ve been a brilliant idea,” Andy explained in the book. “If she is struggling with mental health issues, though, this isn’t the time. Her enthusiasm was infectious, though when I was explaining the idea of Legacy and the brand-new show, she just wanted to focus on the last version. So the conversation didn’t go anywhere.”
