Things are progressing

Wow!  It’s been a lot time since I posted!  We’re in the middle of rehearsals right now, and everyone is doing very well.  We’re doing blocking at this point, and while it can be tedious, it’s an essential step.

We’ve had a donation for the desserts, so that’s covered.  We’ve also had someone step up and say that they will get us some sound and light equipment AND run it for us.  Linda and I met with our set people yesterday, and the guy in charge of sets at church (the amazing Dale Poore) has offered to help us a little too.  So that’s very exciting.  My good friend Lisa Phillips has provided some costumes for us and may even be able to help us put some together, which is very exciting.

The whole thing is just going really well.

Will try to update more frequently.

 

First rehearsal

Our first rehearsal is tonight, and I’m really excited.  We had one actor drop out, but Kenton is taking up the slack.  We start at 6:30 in the AA4 classroom.

Jesse is working up some music for our chase scene, and I’m getting the number of the caterer who goes to NewSpring in hopes that she wouldn’t mind donating some baked goods to the cause.  I sent the scripts and rehearsal schedule to Mom for her to make copies.

It promises to be an exciting evening.

 

Auditions

Melodrama auditions are tonight!  Hooray!

At NewSpring in the AA4 classroom from 6:30 to 8:30 pm!

 

Making progress

On Thursday, Linda and I will go to visit at the Prairie Rose Chuckwagon to see about renting their facility.  They made us an awesome deal (my friend JW Johnson is a saint) and the Lord provided someone to donate the funds (he knows who he is, and he’s amazing!!), so now all that’s left to do is sign the paper work and it’ll be official.  Linda has gotten the audition materials ready, but we’re thinking we’re going to have to postpone auditions until after Spring Break.  There’s just too much going on. 

I’m also in process of making the graphics, which I’m very excited about.

We’re making progress, and God is really setting things up for this.  I’m pumped about seeing how God is going to use this!!

 

Giving the Booktruck a rest?

I’m not exactly sure what I’m going to put on this blog yet.  I may just copy the same blog entries from Booktruck and post them here, or I may start consolidating work-related posts.  Or maybe this will be my business blog.  Not sure yet.  But I thought of this idea and I had photoshop handy to make the header, so I did it.

My life really is peachy.  That’s all there is to it.  Or maybe I’ll just explore the areas of life that don’t look peachy but really are.  Maybe I’ll try to define what “peachy” actually means since no one really seems to know.  Not even me.  All I know is it’s what I am.  =)  All the time.  Seriously.

We’ll see what happens with this blog.
