Kick Off
Things are beginning to be busy at the Firelight Performing Arts Academy. We are in rehearsal for our first full length adult show there, Every Sunday Night at Seven. The show will feature 9 adult cast members and 8 of the older Firelight students. The music is all from the 1950's and is loads of fun.
The fall fling is just a few days away. I can't wait to see everyone and hear them sing-a-long to high school musical. We will also have an improv workshop preview so that everyone can find out what improv is all about leading up to the Sept. 12 and 13 improv workshops.
Classes begin on Aug. 31. I am looking forward to a great year! See you all soon.

Fall Fling Updates
Good Morning!
We are getting very excited about the Firelight Fall Fling. I have no doubt that it will be a blast! After careful consideration (and a conversation with my 6 year old granddaughter Emily in Tennessee) I have extended the age to ages 6 and up. I hope to see all of you there so that we can play together before we get down to work.
Registration is still going on so if you know anyone who would like to become a part of what we do at Firelight (from music lessons to theatre classes) have them give me a call.
Don't forget the improv workshop on September 12 and 13. Elaine and Ryan (our improv workshop leaders) are planning to stop by the Fall Fling and give us a taste of what is in store for those of you who are not quite sure what improv is all about.
We have begin rehearsals for Every Sunday Night at Seven and I can assure you it is going to be a show you don't want to miss!!! It is in October and more info will be posted about that soon.
Have a great day and an even better weekend. See you all next week.

Firelight Fall Fling
As our opening date for the fall draws near I have been thinking that it would be fun to kick things off with a bang this year. On August 28, 2009 we will hold our first Firleight Fall Fling.
The Firelight Fall Fling will be a night of fun for all of the Firelight students and their friends ages 8 and up. We will begin the event at 6:30p.m. with theatre games. After the games we will show the sing-a-long version of High School Musical. If you were at the summer cast party you know that this will be a lot of fun for the Firelight group. Pick-up will be at 10p.m.
Parents are welcome of course, but can also use this as a "parents night out" evening. Admission for the event is $10.00 per child. The concession stand will be open and we will add hot dogs to the menu that evening.
Reservations are not required but are recommended as we have had so many people at everything we have done since opening in Youngsville. To make reservations email me at laura@firelightenterprises.com

Cleanest Dressing Room Winners

During Pinocchio rehearsals and performance we held a contest to see which dressing room would stay the cleanest. The boys won hands down! Here is a picture of them in that dressing room. It gave them great pleasure to beat the girls at cleaning. I have never directed or acted in a show with cleaner dressing rooms!
Improv Workshop
Good Morning! I've been at work here since about 6a.m. and feel that I have accomplished much. You can now check out the upcoming Improv Workshop on the web at

Every Sunday Night at Seven
We had our first rehearsal for our upcoming variety show "Every Sunday Night at Seven". What a fun, talented bunch of people. I look forward to being a part of the show. All of the music is from the 1950's so will be well known (at least by the "older" crowd.)
In the morning I plan to up-date the Firelight website and ad a page about our upcoming Improv Workshops on September 12 and 13. I'll add info here as well when I have the page all finished.

Getting Started
It would seem that practically everyone else in the world is now blogging so I've decided to join the fun. This is my first blogpost. At this point my intention is to post several times a week and keep all parents and students of Firelight up to date on what is happening at the Academy as well as in the local arts community.
Registration for this year's classes is in full swing. It is a very exciting time for me. I look at the forms and wonder how much children have grown over the summer or what a new student might be like. Students are registering for theatre classes, broadway-style singing, guitar class and private music lessons. I am beginning to wonder how I will have the time to teach all of them! If you haven't registered yet be sure to do that soon as classes and lesson slots are filling up fast.
I'm going to "launch" this rocket now and see where it goes. I'll write more later.
