The First Performance of "Is it I?"

The director hasn't sent us any pictures yet, so I'll have to do without them until next week or so, but our first performance was a success!!!!! The church was filled! There wasn't a single open seat (except for the ones which people weren't supposed to sat in). We arrived there about an hour earlier than the cast was supposed to get there and helped set up. Once we had moved so many thing this way and that, the stage was set. We then went to get into costumes and makeup. Not being professional actors, the makeup was simple. Since we were supposed to be the apostles, they darkened our skin with the makeup to make us look middle eastern. We then waited for the call to come out... the door opened... it was... time. We went out to the hall outside of the church and waited for our cue, once the lector said "and Jesus sent two of his disciples into the village to find a place to celebrate the Passover meal" we walked in. Myself, Jesus, Peter, and Judas walk to the center aisle as the others go to opposite aisles. Then we walk up the altar... I'll post a video of it next week... so you'll have to wait. It was so much fun!!!!!!! One more performance! Just one more!!! Noooooooo!!!!!!
