my dramatic weekend...

Today, my drama group will be performing, "Lunar Moon Latte," at our missions banquet at church. It is a parody on the Lottie Moon Christmas offering that is a big emphasis this time of year. The script is really very funny, it depicts 3 clueless church-folk in search of how they can help with international missions...Lonna, a bohemian-character, is looking at the moon with her telescope in search of the "Lunar-Moon-Offering," Anne, a "Pharisee", believes the offering is for "Moonies!!!" and promptly has a fit.....and Linda, a southern-belle, wants to give money to the "Latte-Moon-Offering." Jon, the pastor, sets them all straight and all is well.....Yesterday, Lacey had a drama clinic with the new director and I sat in on the last hour of it. It was cool because he's a trained actor and not just making it up as he goes along....like I do. I introduced myself to him and he said, "Oh, you're the one....." to which I replied, "No, you're the one...." It was a funny exchange...actors are so strange. Anyway, my favorite part was when he was talking about method-acting and how important it is to prepare for a part in this manner and he looks at me and asks," So, when did method-acting really start? You think 3o or 40 yrs. ago?" He's looking at me for the answer!!!! I'm thinking to myself, "this is so cool that he thinks I know what I'm talking about!!" So, I nod in agreement and I'm in... We did have an interesting exchange about how after FREEWILL, God's most important gift would have to be IMAGINATION......
