Hello, all...... Ex-Tech. Directors Unite! Bliss here, glad to see everyone is still doing well. I tried to get out to Rock Springs to see Kelsey's show but Robber Bridegroom ate me alive. The show was great, we closed on Sun., and a big success. For me it was a big step and a lot of work. I ended up directing, designing (set/lights/costumes), building, painting the show as well as playing guitar, some chorus parts and Big Harp. Also I managed to talk Joe Baker back onto the front of the stage as the guitar 1 player. Here's one for the story books: On opening night some guy from Idaho Falls traveling through town stopped into the Trading Post (where our theatre is located) for dinner. The owner informed him that we only had dinner theatre tickets and no "regular" dinner, he and his associated said that would be fine and came in for the show. And this is where low-tech pays off, at intermission he wrote us a check for $1,000, saying he saw all of the extension cords and figured we needed some help. He plans to come see our next show in June. Furthermore, on closing night a local, not to be out done by an out of towner, wrote us a check for $2,500. After a long hard rehearsal schedule it made our future look bright again.
Sorry to blow my own horn, but we are all very excited up here to be recognized for our hard work. Hope everyone else is seeing their dreams come true. With love and respect to all....Bliss
