I now have to take a shower so that I will be squeeky clean and refreshed to usher in less than an hour for a local production of Quilters. I've only seen this once before (a high school production) and I have to admit that that high school production was one of the best high school productions of any show that I had ever seen. It was absolutely wonderful. The actresses chosen for the roles were perfect...and they were the most experienced performers of the school.
So, I'm fairly apprehensive about seeing this. It's being put on by a local church group and, no offense to anyone who has been a part of a church group that has put on a theatrical production, my experience has been that even though they give it their all, the end product is quite (and I mean quite) lacking in theatrical talent. But since I am only ushering (and didn't pay), I don't have to watch it if I don't want to. We'll see. I'll give a report when I get back.
