They will know we are christians by our name tags
I would just like to take this opportunity to shamelessly plug Halo. Which is opening this week at UCFV Theatre. The title of this blog comes from a slection of songs on the CD from the Christian folk duo in the show - known as Dove. Joanne, the props designer put all of these great fake song titles just to amuse hereself and others in the cast and crew. Nonetheless, there are many wonderful funny bits in the show for anyone who would like to come. It's a great show. hmmm... doughnuts...

can I bring avery? or should I not? I can't wait to see it, but my regularly scheduled patron of the ucfv theatre arts is presently out of commission. (read: amy.)
has opening night already happened?
That "Halo" looks pretty interesting. What's the connection with Tim Horton's? Does it feature in the play?
I'm away this weekend in Calgary, and then next weekend in Victoria.
I hope I get a chance.
to answer all your questions in order
Vic- Opening night is tonight -friday the 13(oooohhh).
There are a few "shits" some use of God's name in less that reverent terms and a small kissing scene but- essentially the play has a nice dialog between faith and reason. The playwright tries to find a way for people of different belifs to tolerate each other. If you don't mind a little salty language comming from the main character -a dissatified 18 year old Tim Hortins employee-then It's a very funny and moving play.
Matt- they play is set in a small town Tim Hortons -and that is where the vision appears. It becomes this mecca for worshipers and gawkers - Eventually the, "pop pilgrimage",as it is described by A reporter from the CBC ends up being something rather tacky- much to the chagrin of the new local priest.
I worked at Timmy's once upon a time.
I can't wait to see this play.
Kurt worked there too! I should take him. (He was a tim-bit! nobody ever wore the costume before Kurt, and George hasn't made anybody wear it since. It was one of those inflatable costumes, so you had to walk around with a little fan/generator all day, whilst having people swerve at you, throw rocks, yell 'get a real job!')
Hah! I was the Flinstone's pet, Dino for two long hot summers out in Bridal Falls, when I was 14 an 15.
Punk kids would run up to me and say: "you're not Dino!, there's a MAN in there", only to unzip Dino and realize it was actually NOT a MAN in there! :)
I think I earned $2000 per summer.
