The Play's the Thing, pt 2

In an earlier post, I wrote about the play I've been involved in, The Diviners. This past weekend we performed in the MACT (Minnesota Association of Community Theatres) Festival at North Hennepin Community College.  It was an amazing experience!  I was able to see productions from eight other community theatre groups around Minnesota.

We performed on Saturday afternoon. We had a few difficulties/challenges here and there, but were able to pull off a great show.  The cast and crew found out that our show was good enough to go to the Regional competition in Fargo at the end of April!  Along with the honor of being chosen to represent MN, many members of our show received special recognition. I'm the proudest of the Best Ensemble award given to us.

I'm still in a bit of shock and disbelief over all of this. Our group will have a couple of public performances to raise funds for our trip.  So I get to go back to the fictional town of Zion, Indiana, (the show's setting) at least a couple more times.  My greatest hope is to be Best Show in Fargo and be able to go to Carmel, Indiana, for the National festival.
