Almost Showtime (Prelude to Event #8)

GOArts is short for Georgia Open Arts Month which takes place each October.
It's a collective campaign to raise awareness about arts in our area.

Last October, I took up a challenge to see 31 shows in 31 days and blog about it... in the end, I saw 41.
Sure, it was a bit tiring but it was also an amazing opportunity.

The column on the left is a linked schedule of everything I saw.
For a more logical read of this blog o'adventures, scroll down to the first entry and start reading there.

I'm not a reviewer, nor am I an art critic.
I aim to raise public awareness about the great tapestry of arts & culture in our area and inspire you to get out there and enjoy it.

Almost Showtime (Prelude to Event #8)

Heading down to The Legacy Theatre in Tyrone, Georgia, on Thursday evening to watch the final dress rehearsal of Children's Letters to God. There are lots of great performing arts organizations beyond the beltway and across the state and I'm glad to have the opportunity to visit this one and watch these young actors.

Here's a Tip: If you ever want to see a theater production, musical concert or dance performance but can't attend the scheduled shows, call the company ahead of time and see if they'll let you attend the dress rehearsal instead---leave a donation in lieu of a ticket.
