Colleen’s words to use this week are WORK and PLAY
The
Actors
Learn their parts
In rehearsals
Because that is their job
The director guides them
Costumers make their wardrobes
Sets are designed and built with care
Tickets are sold, ushers seat patrons
When the curtain rises, the fun begins

How true. A lot of work goes into each play we enjoy. And I know they all enjoy their work – the fruits of their labors as well.
