Well, we pulled it off. The musical was a success, mostly because we got through it without killing any children. But also because we were able to finish the set flats, make 5 book costumes, hand-make 30 cards and flags, convince all the little boys that the stage makeup was for their own good, miraculously pull half of our kids out of their I-Will-Never-Sing-In-Front-Of-Anyone Shells, recruited no less than 20 teenagers and adults to help us with a 12 hour performance day, found enough caffeine in 3 HEB stores to last us 2 entire days (that was SO a God thing), seated 160 people for the musical, and had enough BBQ to feed cast, crew and audience.

We must have been on genius pills or something... Here's some pictures from the dress rehearsal, the day before.
