Update on our theater company

Hi all,
I just wanted to let you know what's up. Right now I am looking for a place to do our rehearsals and shows. I just could not come up with the money to continue at the Strand. There is another theater company working through the Strand but that is not the Imaginatory Theater Company. Some of you contacted me with info about that show and I thought it would be best to let everyone know here.

I don't exactly know when but auditions for the other theater company are coming up and they are doing Annie Jr. I was told the audition fee is $85. That's all I know for sure. That and our family can't afford to do that.

This summer I have been hired to teach theater camp at Dance Fusion in Fogelsville. Let me know what you are up to. Maybe at least we can have a get together of some sort. I was also thinking of a trip into NYC to see a show. Check with your parents and give me some feedback.

I will keep you posted on my location search. If you have any suggestions or leads please, please let me know. I miss working with all of you sooo much.

Blessings,
Mrs. V.

Does anyone have pictures from the shows or parade to share?

Hi all,
Happy 2008! I'm trying to update our page and get a scrapbook of sorts going. Does anyone have any photos from the shows or parades to share. I'm working on a DVD of our 2007 season and would love to include a slide show of photos of everyone either at rehearsals or just having fun.
Thanks,
Mrs. V.

CONGRATULATIONS!

You were all so great the past two nights. Thank you so much for your hard work, dedication, teachable spirits and love. When we all work together we can do amazing things.

Please thank your parents for lending us for all these rehearsals and shows, and for driving you back and forth so much. Without their love and support none of us could have performed last night.

I also need to thank the wonderful crew we had this time around. Michael, Mrs. M, Mr. H, Jess, Mr. V, Mrs A and Mrs S. Thank you for all your help.

Lastly a big, big thank you to Bill and Barbara from the Strand for letting us use their building and helping us in soooo many ways. Show your appreciation by going to the other events at the Strand and telling your friends about them. You can check out their events at http://www.hamburgstrand.com

Now....what to do in the Spring? I have a few ideas but nothing firm so if you have a suggestion hit comment and let me know. Remember musicals are a bit out of our budget range just yet, but I'm saving up. : ) We have lots of strong female actresses in our company so keep that in mind too...not that we don't have strong actors too but we have lots of girls.

Well, I'm for a bit of a rest and regrouping. Keep in touch with each other and pop in here regularly to find out what's going on.

The Fine Arts Festival is coming.
Love,
Mrs. V

That was a great rehearsal last night!

What a great rehearsal last night. I really saw things come together. Thanks so much for all your hard work. How did it feel to have some costumes and the set and props? Are you getting excited for the show? I know I can't wait.

I also want to thank everyone who made the costumes, set, and props possible. You have no idea how many angels are working in the wings for this show. We are blessed.

I'm sitting here this morning making a list of all the ways I am blessed by God. You guys are on that list. Make your own list of blessings. Then when hard times come, and unfortunately, they will, you will have your list to read and be encouraged by.

So, we have time off for Thanksgiving. Your assigment is to make that list of blessings. Put it in your favorite journal or a nice piece of paper and frame it to hang in your room. You'll know where to find it when you need to be reminded that God loves you immeasurably and will never stop loving you.

I'm going to ask about your lists at dress rehearsal.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Blessings,
Mrs. V

We've been asked to do a special performance.

Hi all,
We've been asked if we could perform for 2 church services. Please let me know if you are available to perform at Grace Bible of Molino (up RT.61) on Dec. 16 and 23 at their 10 am morning service. I will need to know by Wed. so I can give them an answer. Once I know who is available I can decide what scenes to offer them. This is very exciting...God is enlarging our territory.

If your church is interested in having us bring our ministry to them please let me know. Or if you would be interested in bringing our talent to the nursing home, let me know.

God is good!

Blessings,Mrs. V.
