Ruth and Matt update, April 23, 2007

Dear Friends, relatives, and prayer partners,

Thanks so much for the supportive e-mails. It is always good to hear from you.

I forgot to update you all on Matt. While the University of Nebraska accepted him, he did not get into the theater performance program, and if he can't major in performance, he doesn't want to go there. Actually, if he had a tech portfolio, he could try for that, but all he has is monologues and an acting resume. At the moment, he is planning to attend Radford University, which is in the Virginia State system. Good for seeing his plays, and good for the budget, too. It is just down the road from Blacksburg, home of Virginia Tech. Matt has some friends at Tech, but none of them were injured. One of the fatalities was a drama major, though, so some of his friends probably knew her.

Speaking of Matt, he is playing Horatio in the Lake Braddock Theater's upcoming production of Hamlet. He is also the makeup designer. I keep coming home to a crime scene as he experiments with recipes for stage blood and ways to use it.

The following link will let you know when the performances are:

I hope to be able to give you a link for tickets sometime soon. If you could come to the Saturday, 7:00 pm, performance, that would be great. That is the "Cappies" show, and a good crowd with good reactions helps with the judges. But, just come to one of the perfs, and enjoy!

Get your mammograms. Do your self-exams.

Ruth
