In the Heights is a musical written by Lin-Manuel Miranda. The musical was performed at the John Anthony Theatre at the Spring Creek Collin College campus on March 9‚ 2014. The show was put together very well. The professionalism was evident in everything from the lights‚ to the choreography. At the first view of the stage‚ the audience was immediately transported into Washington Heights New York‚ on Fourth of July 2014. It was a hot summer day‚ and with help from the actors‚ the audience

So far I have tidied my desk‚ organised my notes into alphabetical order‚ made myself a cup of tea and set out my highlighters.

In seventh grade‚ I was first introduced into the theatre world by a group of my eighth grade friends singing a song I had never heard before. I did not have the time to ask them what it was called‚ but they told me it was from a musical called Wicked; the song in question was called “What is This Feeling?”‚ though at the time‚ all I knew was that it was about some people hating each other; back then‚ I’d believed it to be a love song between the Wicked Witch of the West and some unnamed male lead

I’ve worked in the children’s ministry known as Kids Church at Urban Village Church – Andersonville on and off for about three years now. Last year we launched Godly Play as our curriculum for Kids Church but took a break from utilizing this curriculum over the summer. This month we have picked the Godly Play curriculum back up. I decided to interview the children on their first day of Kids Church. I thought‚ as a teacher‚ it would be good to ask the children ‘What is God?’ at the beginning of
