Opening night performance was hilarious. The energy and enthusiasm was
phenomenal. Great entertainment for a summer evening.

To the Cast and Crew of Noises Off,
I just wanted to take a moment and congratulate you all on a wonderful
production. We were able to attend the opening night performance and can not
tell you how much we loved the entire show. The comedy came in many forms
and was constant throughout all three acts. I honestly can not even imagine
how exhausted you all must be after each performance! In the three years
that Teatro delle Muse has been the resident company of the ArtCentre
Theatre I can't remember a production that generated so many belly laughs
from the audience. I sat in the back row (as is a habit of mine, I enjoy
watching the audience, reviewers and tech crew as much as I do the show) and
never saw a moment of restlessness, nor watch checks or snoring from
audience members. That is amazing! Be very proud of the work you have done.
I am proud to know this show is a part of our theatre. Jamey, I can't wait
to see your next production with TDM, wait productions. there's Grease,
Rocky Horror Picture Show, A Christmas Show and of course Evening Star
Rising. We are so glad to have you as a part of our company and we hope that
you bring all the talent from Noises Off with you to other shows!

True?   Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass; rather it is about learning to dance in the rain.

Discouraging News: PISD says they do not want us to plant any more trees on their campuses.  The problem: mowing. Anyone know of any other possiblities in the Plano area?  I hate to shut down our service after 20 years and thousands of trees.

See you Sunday.

J.S.

2 Kings 4:  When the woman had been called and stood at the door, Elisha promised, “This time next year you will be fondling a baby son.”
Romans 6:  We know that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more; death no longer has power over him.
Matthew 10:  And whoever gives only a cup of cold water to one of these little ones to drink because the little one is a disciple—amen, I say to you, he will surely not lose his reward.”

To be able o be the source of calm and joy in the midst of crisis is to stir timid souls to life again. “Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile,” Thich Nhat Hanh says, “but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”
