The Cutting Room

I'm glad to be able to share in this site that Albert created for us.

Last night, we had our one and only Dress Rehearsal. It was way too long!! We are wanting to show all 3 performance pieces we have prepared for the road along with time for worship, prayer, sharing, slide show, and a intermission. I won't scare all of you that are reading from coming so I won't tell the total time here. But be sure to know that the night's program and material is going the the editing cutting room so to speak. We really needed to condense the Missions sketch which ran 24 min! And so a rewrite is taking place as I speak by all of the corresponding actors.

Jen and Edwin in "Lions"

Earlier today, I eliminated some dialogue from "Frog Prince" that I thought was unnecessary, saving at least 6-7 min. This will be better for the short attentions spans of our audience at the B and G Club and Children's Hospital. So now if all goes as planned, Thursday will be a fine evening that will not go late or get tiresome for our special guest. The overall pace of acting and delivery of lines was dragging and so as the actors get even more familiar with their lines/blocking and not being nervous things should move along at a appropriate pace.

Tonight is dedicated to prayer and worship resisting the temptation to "work". It's time to surrender ourselves, the trip and process to God. He has always been so faithful and down right miraculous in the past for us. We are always amazed at how he gets us through tough situations and makes our performances great even though we felt so unready.

We hope to see many of you Thursday 7:15 we want to thank, and hug, you for supporting us. Thanks for reading.
