We've traveled all across the Bay Area performing this. Our main stage used to be the Paramount Theatre. As a child i would run up and down the ramps and sit in all the balcony and mezzanine seats just releasing all the pint-up energy i had waiting for the show to start. About 6 years ago our church built a building that included a gym/auditorium/theatre :-) so we moved into that building and i can definitely say it has been a lot more fun, being in those dressing rooms.
If those dressing rooms could talk, oh man! So many good times laughing at some of the soloists, having deep talks, trying to have the makeup not look lyk hoe strollers, people falling, sometimes fighting but just backstage havoc going on! so anyway this is the last season and i'm encouraging &inviting as many people as possible to come out. Even if you're not religious, just come out to see the awesome dancing! (myself included) :-)
