This was our first performance as new trainees! We were all very excited, and it went very smoothly for the most part. The company performed “Life of Praise” and then the company and the trainees performed the ballet “The Crown” together.
We all have been working on acting our roles convincingly, and it worked a little too well! At one point in the ballet, Breanne, playing the part of Foolish, ambushes Amy, playing the part of Lachlana, who is searching for the Crown of Life. We trainees come out as tormentors, helping Foolish to discourage Lachlana. At one point in the scene, one of the elderly women cried out, “Oh! They’re terrible!” Apparently we made quite the impression. Luckily, we all come out during the worshipful finale, “Hail to the King”, so hopefully she realizes we are not like that usually!
We had the privilege of talking to the residents afterwards, and many seeds were planted. They were very appreciative of the performance and its message. I pray that God will continue to draw the hearts of those present towards Himself!
