The Daily News
1 Though this be madness, yet there is method in't...
2 Suddenly, we're back in business.
3 I assembled FOUR really fun opening numbers for the Show, and I want to tell the world what they are, but I think it's more fun if we just keep it a surprise!
4 If you are trying out, come to the Theatre TODAY after school. I'm expecting a pretty good turnout; I've had kids coming into my room and inquiring about it all day. That's usually a sign that lots of people are interested!
5 Those of you worried about it, fear not! You will be singing as a GROUP, and I've chosen some really fun songs, so that after the auditions, you will be singing all night.
6 Auditions.
7 It's REAL again around here.
8 And it just keeps getting better! I got home last night after preparing the audition packets, and found EIGHT more CD's of music!!!! Stuff from Disney, INCLUDING Lion King, Broadway Hits, Guys and Dolls, West Side Story, and a few others.
9 The troupes are gathered, and say what you will, it's an early Spring! And we will perform on the weekend of Easter, which means a LOT of people will be in town to be able to enjoy and celebrate with us!
10 Something's comin'...
11 That's a song from West Side Story. Something's Comin'...
12 We can begin right where we left off.
13 With love. Always, with love. That's the Theatre.
14 The excitement of auditions, the beginning of a Show, the continuance of the continuance of the continuance...
15 Because, you see, though this be madness, yet...
16 In the Spring of 1997, we put on a Show called, quite simply, The Show.
17 Because the Shows always live, always come back, always remind us of who we are. And they are the same Show, in the long run...a concept that will make sense soon enough...
18 And today is the dawn of a completely new Show, and yet...
19 It is a continuance of a continuance...
20 And on and on, and they all take on a much deeper meaning as each year sifts away, so swiftly that we barely have time to realize the importance as it is happening, until we measure it in love. This will occur to you later in this piece.
21 So..wow. A musical...to our new Company...here are some pics of our last Musical! The baton has been passed...may these wonderful pictures lift your spirits and prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet. The time has come for you, our new Company, to take the baton, and to bring still more magic to those who passed it to you...and to your own talented and amazing group, and to a new closing night. After all, in the end, it's all one Show...and it continues...enjoy this! Enjoy the joy and simplicity of friendships and warm memories;
they will take on tremendous meaning with each passing year, with each sunset, with each midnight, with each cup of coffee...
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes...
How do you measure, measure a year...
In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee, in inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife...how about love?
measured in love...
seasons of love.
break-a-leg today.
you are now part of this.
Peace.
