Musical

Hi everyone,

Greetings. I just wanted to blog in addition to Andrew's spiel with regards to the musical. Hmm.. there wasn't such as big of a turn out at youth as I expected however, some of you will be pleased to know that the casting is already pretty much done. Due to the lack of response from the youth with regard to playing different roles, Vivien has approached people and asked those who agree to playing a part to play a particular role.

Now, that doesn't mean we don't need you! Every member of the youth group is needed! Whether you are in a speaking part or not. The opening scene of this musical is set in a marketplace and we need as many people as we can to make the scene look bustling! So we NEED you! Some rehearsals for the musical will be held during youth group times and others will be held during choir as well as outside of those 2 times. We hope to get the rehearsals of this production underway soon.. today we had our first run through the script and will be running through the script again later on.. so do come along so you don't miss out on the action!!

We will be having another session with Vivien in youth group in mid to late Feb so stay tuned! It is important for you to come as you need to familiarise yourself with the script even if you are not speaking.. there is a scene or two with "crowds" and that is where YOU are needed! So it is important that you join us whenever we have rehearsals so we can include you in the crowd scenes.. this is no small production, it is going to be full scale with not just the youth involved but the choir and even the wider church community. I'm super excited and I know it's going to be a great show!

We need you in this musical.. whether you are a main charactor, minor character, crowd or props people.. we need all the help we can get so lets encourage each other to participate and give it our best.. after all.. this production will be a great way of bringing people to Christ.. isn't that great?! If you have any questions with regard to the musical, the rehearsals or anything else youth related.. feel free to come see myself or any of the committee members.

Have a good day!

God bless you

In Christ,
Amy

YOUTH MUSICAL

"From the creative team of Robert and Cindy Sterling comes this magnificent musical for Easter. Featuring the high drama and pageantry of ancient Rome during the rule of Tiberius Caesar, The Choice -- a fascinating telling of the Easter story -- is painted against the backdrop of an ambitious Roman centurion's love for a beautiful young Jewish woman."


SYNOPSIS - During the rule of Tiberius Caesar in the seaside city of Capernaum, a young roman centurion, Marcus, falls in love with a beautiful girl, Hannah. She is a follower of Jesus, the radical teacher from Nazareth. AS Marcus becomes fatefully intertwined in the tumultuous events leading to the execution of Jesus, he weights the words and example of Christ against the weatlth and power of the world. In the balance hangs .. The Choice



The Choice
is the name of our first Youth Musical Production! It is a play encompassing the most significan decision in any person's life - the eternal choice each of us must kae when we encounter the risen Christ. The obvious charms and the hidden chains fo this world present and alluring contrast to the deliberate humility and the inner freedom of Jesus.

Most importantly, we pray that our efforts will help someone, somewhere, choose Jesus.


So.
This friday night at Youth 11th January. We will be having auditions for the Production!
Although this play is set in ancient Rome, it will be performed with a modern perspective which will follow with modern costumes and props.

WE want to include EVERYONE in this musical. The audition is not to be judgemental - instead its purpose is to place the best people in the most suitable roles.
SO i hope to see everyone taking part in these auditions. The audition is to be taken in groups of three. The scripts are linked below. If you don't have enough people for three that shouldn't be a problem. Just let me know on the night.

Hope to see you all audition! :D
Thanks
