The End of the Show

This picture of Joel was taken tonight at Sight and Sound's Millennium Theatre in front of the display advertising the "Abraham and Sarah" show. So here is Ishmael himself standing in front of a wax Isaac and Sarah. The wax Abraham was in the scene too but not in this picture. It is a very nice display!

Tomorrow is Closing Day for the 2008 season of the "Abraham and Sarah" show at Sight and Sound's Living Waters Theatre. Joel performed in 90 shows since Opening Day in April! It will be a bittersweet day tomorrow as he performs the role of Ishmael two last times - the 1:00 and 4:15 shows. Of course, he could be back again next year - IF he doesn't grow too tall!

We had a special evening tonight - we went to see "In the Beginning" at the Millennium theatre! It was a perfect ending to our school week's study of creation. What a beautiful show it was. It was even better than when we saw it last year. Jaden loved it too - although he thought he would be seeing Noah and the ark! (We measured Noah's ark earlier in the day today!) He said "There's all the animals, but where's the boat??!!!"

Both times that I have seen "In the Beginning", I cannot help crying when Adam and Eve are created. It is so very moving and emotional. It was so thrilling when God breathed the breath of life into each of them! If you haven't seen this show, you still have a chance - it runs through next month and then will be returning again next year. I still like "Abraham and Sarah" the best, but this one isn't far behind.
