Into Battle! And Other Theatricals!

Performed "The Word Made Fresh" in Battle which is near Hastings on Friday night. Went well. A lot of young people in the balconey, so was quite noisy, I felt I had to "up" certain parts to win them over and I think it worked. Had to have my battery replaced during the second half of the show. Well not my battery, I don't think I have a battery, I mean more the battery in my radio mike! Good feedback at the end, again, nothing to do with the mike or the battery, more the people who watched, and then we headed for home. Another 7 hour round trip, touring is tiring! The night before I went to see St. Andrew's Players performance of Godspell. Which was very good-that group really do have talent, as anyone who saw their, "Hired Man" will testify. Great set, great lighting within the church and exquisite harmonies. Like Jesus Christ Superstar, the writers of Godspell didn't think Christ's resurrection was worth putting in to the end of the production, which is a shame because it's probably the most important miracle Jesus ever performed! To conclude a thoroughly theatrical few days, I went to see, "A Murder Is Announced" produced by my beloved St. Christopher Players at the library theatre. Funny not to be at all involved but I thought they did an excellent job. Some excellent performances by very good friends of mine, fantastic set and all held very well together by my good friend Calvin who was directing and seems to have a real knack for these murder mystery type things!
