Having the time of my life

I love drama.  My kids love drama.  My husband loves drama. Like my other post about Drama in the Church, felt that the Lord wanted me to have a quality show with a Good Message!

After auditions in September, the cast has been hammering out the rehearsals weekly.  Thankfully, I have some drama friends.  Twice we have had different guest directors come in and give me some feedback and direction for this growing group of thespians.

Total AWE of Him.  I have never seen so many people STEP UP to the call for service in our church.  God is bringing people from all creative outlets to technical people to make this play a huge success.  Just for an example, I had no sound/lights/projection and in one announcement we got SIX volunteers.  Yippee!

It is also a bit terrifying to do something out of my gifting (organizationally, sewing, detailed, mechanical, and many other things challenged).  However, like Gideon it is an added BLESSING to see God work knowing that my best efforts would result in ... a ...a....disaster.  Thank you Lord.

"The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" full length play featuring many youth and adults,   Performing THREE times. 12/13 @ 7pm, 12/20 @ 7pm (nursery provided 0-3), and 12/21 @ 2:30pm. 16005 E. Shawn Drive, Palmer Alaska! Free.

The Drama Can Begin...Now.

"The drama can begin...now!" That is what I would say when I dropped my children off at the Valley Performing Arts.  They were able to be in a musical drama camp with a performance at the end of the two weeks of intense rehearsals.

I began the two weeks by taking Max to the doctors to have a written approval of freedom from the itchy chick pox virus.  Yeah, he passed!

Hannah, Max, and Bronwyn all loved learning how to block, memorize lines, choreography and speaking with the character in mind.

However, during the last week, Hannah came down with a fever and yes... Chicken pox!  She was heartbroken, but she took it well.

The performance was good with Bronwyn hitting every note with gusto.
