One week from opening!!



Here is Alejandro practicing his fire breathing for the top of the show. So much fun.


So, we are one week away from our opening on Thursday, April 8th and things are starting to shape up. It is quite a feat orchestrating a 24 member ensemble in a piece with so many moving parts, but the actors are getting stronger everyday and there is little piece of everyone in this show. That is what is really exciting about working on an ensemble piece like this, is that everyone is contributing. Ideas and moments are created by the group, which is difficult but has an exciting result.
The space is also starting to shape up. Lanterns are beginning to fly in and the aesthetic of the environment develops more and more everyday. It is going to be really very beautiful when it is all said and done.

We are also getting a response from KCACTF on the Friday after opening. Shelly Elman the Chair of Region 4 and the co-chair Jeff Green will be responding to the show during their visit to the school in preparation for next year's festival on our campus. Very exciting!

A little more of the "FAMILY DANCE!!!"


Hope to see you there! April 8th!!!
