OH WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT MY FAMILY AWAY FROM HOME. THOSE OF YOU WHO KNOW ME KNOW THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN SHY. I LOVE TO BE ON STAGE. THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THEN FEELING THAT EXCITEMENT WHEN THE AUDIENCE IS LAUGHING AND CLAPPING FOR THE JOB WELL DONE. YOU COME INTO THE MUSICAL STRANGERS BUT COME OUT AS FAMILY, WE ALL GET VERY CLOSE REGARDLESS IF YOU ARE SIX YEARS OLD OR SIXTY.THE ONLY HARD PART IS SAYING GOODBYE TELL NEXT YEAR.WE ALL CRY ON CLOSING NIGHT( ITS TRUE) WE HAVE THE MOST AMAZING DIRECTORS,AND AN INCREDIBLY TALENTED GROUP.I SOMETIMES WATCH THE REHEARSALS AND THINK I NEVER KNEW THERE WAS THIS MUCH TALENT IN OUR AREA.EVERY YEAR WE START TO PRACTICE IN APRIL AND THEN AT THE END OF JUNE WE PREFORM SIX NIGHTS. THE LAST TWO WEEKS WE HAVE NAMED HELL WEEKS, BUT THEY ARE ALSO THE BEST.YOU WORK HARD, I ONCE HAD SOMEONE ASK ME DO YOU GET PAYED TO DO THIS AND I SAID YES. THEY SAID REALLY HOW MUCH. MY RESPONSE WAS WE ARE PAYED BY THE SATISFACTION OF A NEW FAMILY EVERY YEAR, WHEN THE AUDIENCE LOVE WHAT YOU'VE DONE AND THE INCREDIBLE CLOSE FRIENDSHIPS YOU FORM. SHE JUST LOOKED AT ME KIND OF WEIRD AND I SAID I CANT EXPLAIN THE FEELING, YOU WILL JUST HAVE TO COME AND EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF.ONE NIGHT AFTER A PERFORMANCE WE WERE GREETING THE AUDIENCE AND A YOUNG MOTHER WALKED UP TO ME AND A GROUP OF FRIENDS AND JUST STARTED HUGGING US, SHE SAID THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS. MY THREE YEAR OLD DAUGHTER CANT WAIT TO DO THESE PLAYS, SHE IS MENTALLY DISABLED BUT IT IS SO WONDERFUL THAT SHE HAS HIGH HOPES FOR THE FUTURE. IF WE CAN MAKE JUST ONE PERSON HAPPY THEN WE HAVE DONE OUR JOBS. I CANT WAIT UN TILL NEXT YEAR! HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF THIS YEARS PLAY.
