The church we attend, Christ Chapel Bible Church, is putting on a musical.
They're performing the Broadway version of "Beauty and the Beast", regarding it as a community outreach. For the past few weeks the congregation's been urged to plan to come on opening night - tonight - as it'd be nice for the performers to have a decent-sized audience.
Clearly there was some anxiety about "If we perform it, will they come?"
Um, not to worry....
It might be Thursday evening but the place is packed solid, from the looks of it. All parking lots are full or close to, cars on the surrounding neighborhood streets, plus cars being parked across Montgomery St., forcing people to run for their lives across that busy street, seeing as how there's no crossing guard.
I'm taking Bethany, Brianna, Meredith and Margaret to Saturday afternoon's performance. Something tells me we need to plan to get there early.

Jessica Cheek is going tonight. A friend of hers went last night and got there an hour early. They didn't even get great seats. Supposedly quite a few rows were reserved, maybe for the cast's family? Supposedly it filled completely up and people were turned away. I sure hope people that were coming to Christ Chapel for the first time weren't turned away! Are you SURE you're up for this?
Well, I grant you I'm a little skittish if we must get there THAT early, with kids ranging from 3-7. What do you think?
Omg. I wish we didn't have plans Saturday, Aaralyn would LOVE that. What other times do they have it going on ???
I just did a protected post.
There's one at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning, AAMOF. I'm thinking maybe switch to going to that performance?
