One Day More...
​
Thank you to every student, parent, family member, fan, administrator, director, faculty,
and staff who came to cheer this cast and crew on to the
FOUR SOLD OUT NIGHTS of this show!!
​
The performers and technical crew were blown away by your support. Every performance was a delightful mix of talent,
emotional fortitude, and above all, else filled with love.
​
There were 300 hours of rehearsals poured into this incredible force of a show. 150 Houston Christian students who labored over this show with love, tears and sweat. There were countless bumps and bruises, hours of laughter and a community that is proud of every heart and drum beat to share the music of the people.
​
The Houston Christian students would like to send a special word of thanks to all the other high schools who came to show their support. It means a lot for other communities to make the time to come celebrate this achievement with this cast and crew.
With Deepest Gratitude to all of those who came and further confirmed that love will show you the face of God.
​
Tomorrow we'll discover what our God in Heaven has in store...
