'Who are they''' 'Philistines!!!' 'This calls for the Army of the Living God!' The music begins and from the hack march in the Israelite troops. For those that couldn't make it to see the Rock Slinger and his Greatest Hit, you really missed out on a wonderful performance. To see thc Hall transformed from just a huilding into a desert scene with painted palm trees on the walls and real palm trees up front and a backdrop that was truly a piece of art, was really something. One person attending thought the play would be a little kids' production and he spent his $5 as a donation. He quickly changed his mind and couldn't get over how well it was done. Thc crowd clapped enthusiastically and gave the cast members a standing ovation for the production directed by Brian Black and produced by Patty Banks. Thc production included many community members including Thea Rijkhoff, producing the posters, tickets and programs; Audrey Hackwcll, Kathleen Williamson, Brandy Leslie, Heidi McClure, Gloria Wilbce, Marie Coutts, Judy Lee working on costumes; Chris Lee and Marie McGavin promotions; Gloria Wilbce sound; Jack Clarke, Val Gillies Clarke, Jim Cook, Geoff Banks and Bill Humphries, set construction; Heidi McClure, Judy Emmrich, Judy Lee, Shelley McGavin, Gloria Wilbee, stage crew; Neil McGavin, camera man; Marie Joan Tucklinsky, prompter; The McGavin moving crew; Kathleen Williamson, refreshment coordinator; thc Walton Hall Board for thc use of the huilding; Duff's United Church funding and rehearsal space; Helen Brenie and JoanTucklinsky and Heidi McClure for taking tickets at the door. Proceeds from the musical go to paying ofI a loan from the church and to pay other hills and the extra will go to Rural Response for Healthy Children. It was an incredible time that I'm sure no one will forget for a long time. I know that some of the songs will still he ringing in people's heads. The troop have an opportunity to take their show on the road to Brussels in September, Broadway, here they come. Brian Black of Walton worked tirelessly with the kids teaching them the songs, the intricate dance steps and thc acting.
