All About Faith reading -- success!

I'm pleased to report that our staged reading -- OK, somewhere between a stage reading and a staged reading -- went well at Theatre Alliance on Jan. 28. We had a decent sized audience, who were very attentive indeed. And virtually everyone stuck around for the talkback afterwards, which was a surprise. Good comments, good feedback and everyone seemed to take something away from the play. I couldn't have asked for more!

We then reconvened at the Village Tavern with cast, crew, friends and a couple of special guests from the "Conversations" cast as well. What an excellent group of people to work with!

So, where thanks are due (so many of them): Myla for directing, Kathy for stage managing, Mallorie for lights and sound. Cast: Cheryl Ann Roberts, Carson Elizabeth Gregory, Michael Shapiro, Cameron Williams, Kenny Gaylord and Angie Barnes. Plus all the help from Theatre Alliance, too. You are all the greatest! Now, we'll see if we can find someone who wants to produce it ....

Anyway, it was a great learning experience again -- and of course, working it out in rehearsal and on stage helped the script, too. So glad we were able to work this project out.
