This will be an amazing production of MAN OF LA MANCHA. If you live nearby, plan to be there for one of the four presentations — if you can get a ticket. Last year some of the performances sold out.
I am only a little biased, since my son Doug designed and built (with lots of help) the set, and is directing along with Joan Olson, assistant director.

Good to see you and Doug Saturday at the Sower Gallery event. I’ll check out the show! Thanks for the information.
Oops. You missed Lisa. Well, I’ll make sure next time. I hope you make it to Man of La Mancha. Last Saturday morning Pastor Dave and his wife Joan (the co-director) shared a lot of back story on the musical, which I then shared with the Sunday group at Shepherd of the Hill. Lots of interesting stuff to ponder — and enjoy.
Who’s Lisa?
My beautiful daughter — here for 3 weeks for costuming and other hard work. lives in Williamsburg.
Oops! Sorry to have missed her!
Next time, Gordon.
Yet another ambitious undertaking with the projection of the usual success. Sorry I am not closer.
Oh that would be so special! It will be good when it’s accomplished, though. As you can imagine, there have been months of intense involvement on Doug’s part, and three weeks here in Minnesota on Lisa’s part. I think they will both be more relaxed on Thursday, even though it’s opening night, because they will know they are ready.
If I can accomplish it, I’ll post a photo of the awesome set.
No doubt that the last minute anticipation must be difficult. Yet, I have confidence.
They tell me the last minute anxiety is good for the show. I remember Doug back in High School deliberately working up anxiety before the second performance because there hadn’t been enough energy the first night.
Have a great time!
Thanks. It was a fabulous production!
