The time has come! Ruby Midgette (the school music teacher), Scott and I met last week to do the final planning for MCT at McCarver. We are so excited, and the kids are already all a-buzz about auditions and the play. The residency week starts in just under 3 weeks (May 9-14), and everyone is so excited! We have you and your congregation to thank, so thank you!
On the heels of our gratitude, however, comes a request for more help (you told me to ask!)...
IF you have members who are interested in helping more with this project, here are two ideas:
- We have decided it would be best to feed dinner to the kids who are staying Mon-Fri for rehearsals (3:30-8:00 each night!), so they don't have to worry about packing a meal (or going without). We are looking for volunteers to host each dinner, which will feed about 50 kids and a handful of adults. Scott is asking St. Joseph's hospital staff to do one, and I think Scott and I will buy pizza one night -- would your church be willing to host dinner for the cast one night, as well?
- The MCT team does a great job of managing the kids all week during rehearsals, but they/we will need help on Saturday to set up chairs and help get the kids in costumes and makeup. Is this something you might have 2-3 people help us with?
Finally, please be sure to come to one of the Saturday performances (I think they will be at 3:00 and 5:30, but I'll confirm as we get closer). We are not selling tickets, so you can just show up, and I know the McCarver community would love to have you there! I'll send a more formal invitation soon, but be sure to put it on your calendar -- May 14!!
Looking forward to talking again soon!
