We pursued the Bible thru skits on Seasons, Autumn, Change worked on a video skit for Debbie's upcoming sermon "Righteousness" see video page . We started filming outdoors but it started raining after a few scenes, so we had to go back to my factory & set up an impromptu set... so it took a lot longer than we thought to produce... but it was very well received in church.... We also enjoyed some theatrical games as usual & we are starting to eat healthier fresh foods at our mini banquets & fellowship. Joel is doing drama deploma at TAFE full time & has been in several other plays this year. One of our former team members landed a part in a local production of Mary Poppins.

Pretty much anyone can fit into things theatrical. As we discovered Kathleen has a gift of helps and hospitality she leads the hospitality roster at her church. We coerce her to use her talents at “things”. Her and her husband in the past, had been managers of a large Christian camp centre in the ACT . Carole started with first act, with a well rehearsed portrayal of Balaam’s donkey seeing an angel. This was done from the point of view of the donkey. The Lord was trying to open Balaam’s eyes. Hamisi used Tim as Isaac to tell the story of the sacrifice where God spared Isaac in exchange for a “ram”. Joel did the same story from the point of view of the ram who was actually a “secret agent” who went around doing good. He saw what looked like a murder taking place, tried to get closer but got his horns caught in a thicket. He then noticed that Abraham was coming at him, with a knife… it ended there with his immortal words “whoops I think I have a problem !”. Garry did a "Who am I" – we had to guess an obscure animal that was on the ark. Turned out to be the dinosaur “Behemoth” mentioned in Job 41. Chris our other visitor did a great story about the snake in the "garden of Eden" emphasizing her “S”s. Garry used a puppet and worked with Sarah who was quite his match with quick witty lines.

'chews the cud' = speaking ! .. 'parting the hoof' = going ! the gospel according to animals. Ben & Sam presented an impro skit about a couple of believers who hatch a scheme to do the right thing but thru wrong means... Peter & Timothy,,, used everyone in their skit about Jesus entering Jerusalem on a donkey, we all spread our palms (hands) in front...

June 16 Review
Review.... "gospel presentations" Great time around the meal table then...... The interview was with Carole, Caleb morphed from grub to butterfly, Carole found a lost sheep (Caleb), Garry presented skit set to music of Jesus reaching out to sinners, (played by Caleb Hamisi, Carole ).. we'll workshop this act a bit more in coming weeks, Then Intermission and a time of prayer Great night of food, fun, fellowship, facts & theatre, [4] June 9 Review Last week, we had Carol, Hamisi, Caleb, Garry, Review.... The interview was with Caleb, I presented an at the gates of heaven skit using lego people trying to get into heaven, based on Matt 7:21-23, Carole, with help from caleb , and my puppet gave a very fine & funny skit of Zacheus coming to faith, then we all improvised a gospel message based on the tract "Bridge to Life" Great night of fun, fellowship, learning & theatre, [4] Hi Garry I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed last night. It was a hoot! If and when we do my skit, in church I have a long dressing gown suitable for my character to wear. I’ve already got my skit ready for next week – The Lost Sheep – so you’ll have to pick something else! I’ll bring my gown for that skit too, and I somehow think it will feature prominently in my winter performances! I’ll get Caleb to be the sheep. He likes being in lots of things. Also from next week on, I’ll bring a dessert – from Sara Lee ! Regards Carole June 2 Review Thursday Night Last week, June 2 we had Linda, Anna, Caleb, Garry, and Greg joined us for the banquet at 6pm The interview was with Linda, Caleb did a rap about loving your enemies, Linda, Anna & myself work-shopped an act, we all also put together the basics for the "perspective skit" for Sunday at Kahibah School church, after intermission we engaged one another in an impro exercise... then prayed for lots of things The skit on Sunday created more interest for Things Theatrical with those enjoying our increasingly visual church, and those saying they will come along one nite soon [5] May 26 The Pizzazz Performance Review Thus 26.5.11 Well the nights are certainly getting colder, it's almost winter, who'd start "an anything" this time of year? Freely you receive - Freely give.... so many gifts... so many talents ....God has made us with this great desire to want to give... but it's equally good ...in fact it seems even better to receive.... to be part of the audience (although Paul did say the givers get the better end of the deal). So even if you don't have an act come to watch, gather with others who have things theatrical.... 5 people made it to the meeting all eager to give of themselves, to connect to one another...food, fun, faith,,family, finance, fellowship all pooled in to bless & benefit one another. ....the banquet was enough to feed 15 people... a big casserole 2 extra large pizzas, stacks of mini quiches, the giving is in generous proportions .... so come and eat.... taste & see that the Lord is GOOD ! The interview was with Hamisi, a mini in site into his name, Carole tied the Light of the world verses with a local history of Newcastle lighthouses, Caleb was in colourful costume and gave a great dramatic monologue, of the beatitudes, Garry had a support team of Dianne & Hamisi for a skit about storing your treasures in Heaven, Hamisi taught us a Swahili praise song.....WOW !!!!!! .....That was just the first half..... then after INTERMISSION.... Garry presented the Beatle-attitudes... as recorded by John & Paul............ (and George & Ringo), then we went through an impro exercise... then we prayed for our world, nation, leaders and those of our group... & the curtain fell at 9.00pm twas a great nite [5] 19th May Brief Report Thursday Theme was Genesis Chapter 1 8 in attendance, I interviewed young Jeremiah, Carole presented an interesting percussion act, co staring Caleb, Stephanie & Kirstian danced various animals, Caleb presented a very rehearsed 'mime' of the 7 days of creation, myself Garry, & Hamisi (with a puppet) reinterpreted the original creation story... in to a "new creation" story, we ended in prayer... Lots of people couldn't come for lots of different reasons Well our first night was very cold, 8 people braved it, (plus an extra) we met upstairs at church in the kitchen fro a meal (bring a plate style), then we moved into the room off the kitchen. there were several apologies, but hey a great start.... [8] |

Thurs.May 12, 2011is our First night, 6pm at the Church.
6pm start .then there will be an intermission at about 7.30pm if you need to leave early (eg with young kids etc) & will probably continue to about 8.30 -9pm Food always helps fellowship, so bring a plate to share, probably a drink as well, and a few paper plates, plastic cutlery... hey everyone pray for a few creative cooks to help in this area (hospitality giftings).... this is a place for creativity. Come ready to share about your giftings of course in a creative way.... 5-10 min each ....release your talent !!!! ...if you can bring a filled-in gift & talent sheet this would be good but otherwise fill one in on the night for your name tag.... as a connect group I believe we will continue to grow... as I don't know of anything like this in church circles.... a great opportunity for others to come to give their talents to the Lord & his people... greeting everyone by name will cause connection immediately... See you Thursday Showing Jesus .....Garry SHOWING JESUS
