Today it is my turn and I begin with a huge thanks to all who took part.<br \/>\nFirst the incredible cast who worked so very hard with so little rehearsal time:<br \/>\nTheophilus-+ Priscilla- Natasha Bain<br \/>\nLuke + Aquila \u2013 Edward Baker- Duly<br \/>\nPeter \u2013 Richard Mellion<br \/>\nPaul \u2013 Mark Bernard<br \/>\nMary Magdalene- Katie Forge<br \/>\nJohn and Ananias \u2013 Andrew Dovaston<br \/>\nCrippled man and Simon the Sorcerer- Casey Lloyd<br \/>\nStephen the first Martyr and Julius the Centurian- Sam Townsend<br \/>\nPhilip the Evangelist and Barnabas \u2013 Adam Collins<br \/>\nTabitha- Mei-Ling Thomas<br \/>\nLydia \u2013 ChiChi Uzodinma<br \/>\nWoman from Ephesus \u2013 Amy Millar<br \/>\nImprisoned woman \u2013 Evieanna Mullane<\/p>\n<p>Our amazing Musical Director \u2013 Joffy Girling<br \/>\nOur fantastic Tech team led by \u2013 Adam Kemp<br \/>\nAll the support staff of the Gosport and Fareham Multi- Academy Trust<br \/>\nChris Carter and the Gosport Music Festival for their financial support<br \/>\nLes Heyhoe for sponsoring the printed programmes<br \/>\nBob Ellis of the Gosport Shed for providing the interval drinks<br \/>\nKathleen, Freya, Tina, Darren and Ash for their brilliant behind the scenes help<br \/>\nWe only had the Friday evening and Saturday to rehearse before the one- off evening performance. Friday evening&#8217;s rehearsals were challenging to say the least so to go from where we were Friday evening to Saturday evening&#8217;s performance was nothing short of miraculous!<\/p>\n<p>Many of the issues that arose will be sorted with movement added, face mics rather than standing mics used, a stage set created, professional lighting, adequate rehearsal time, the script refreshed and the musical fully orchestrated.<br \/>\nSo please watch this space!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quote of the week<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2642\" src=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Matthew-17.20.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Matthew-17.20.webp 940w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Matthew-17.20-300x251.webp 300w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Matthew-17.20-768x644.webp 768w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Matthew-17.20-624x523.webp 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>All you need is a mustard seed of faith and nothing is impossible<\/p>\n<p>Theophilus The Musical (taken from Matthew 17:20<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bay House School and Sixth Form &#8211; Venue of The Staged Concert of Theophilus The Musical A Time For Everything featuring Lucy Stimpson- Maynard from the album &#8220;The Season of Singing&#8221; recorded and produced by Ross Gill Last week I shared Bishop Philip\u2019s review of the Staged Concert of Theophilus -The Musical which took place [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2639","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ken-shearsmiths-blog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2639","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2639"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2639\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2645,"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2639\/revisions\/2645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
