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!

Thanks again for all the Food that came in Sunday!

This Sunday: special double baptism (son & dad)

True?    I believe there is an important distinction to be made between religion and spirituality. Religion I take to be concerned with belief in the claims to salvation of one faith tradition or another–an aspect of which is acceptance of some form of meta-physical or philosophical reality, including perhaps an idea of heaven or hell. Connected with this are religious teachings or dogma, ritual, prayers and so on. Spirituality I take to be concerned with those qualities of the human spirit–such as love and compassion, patience, tolerance, forgiveness, contentment, a sense of responsibility, a sense of harmony, which bring happiness to both self and others.
