I tired out for It's A Wonderful Life the musical and I got the part I wanted:) The director is awesome and he said he wished he could clone me. He wanted to know if I have a twin sister. Hilary assured him that one Missy is plenty in the world. I will get to work with super cute Hilary and my friend Aubrey! They are changing the part of the angel Clarence to a woman for me. I think maybe my name will be Clare. Yippee. It will run the month of December at the Draper Historic Theater. This will be my first performance at this Theater. It is an old movie theater turned into a live theater. The cast is full of interesting people to meet and make new friends with. Hilary and I are LOVING being reunited for yet another show. Scott told me to go for it. I was thinking about not doing it as his calling is so 24-7 and with work and all the other demands he has I did not want to add to our families schedule. Scott said it is the perfect time for me to do it since he will be spending time hunting since it is hunting season. So while he is out there shooting birds I will be a the theater:) It was a little stressful since they wanted me for a different part. They wanted me for the angel but also thought I would be perfect in 2 other roles. I begged them to let me be the angel since I would not have to play opposite of anyone which makes for one happy Scott. Imagine how happy I was when I got the call last night at 11:45pm after 3 call backs that I was the angel. When Hilary found out she may have to kiss in the play that even made Scott frown. He is not very theater-y. There a few people in the cast which made me remember why I left the stage to meet normal people back in 1992. The pull of it is strong for me and I can always only stay away for short periods of time until I find myself back in the spotlight. I thrill at the whole thought of theater. I just love it. But it is nice to have balance and take breaks. Having done 2 shows for 2008 seemed just right. I hope I get to wear something sparkly:) I love glitter and sparkles!

Congratulations!! Where do you find all these plays to be in?? Haha, you're so fun.
I want to come too! We'll definitely have to come and see you guys. I miss the Riverbottoms something fierce.
Congrats Missy! I hope you get to wear something sparkly too. I love the pic of the angel crystal. It reminds me of the crystals from our childhood - hahah.
Thanks for making my day more exciting yesterday! Haha, you and Marlene are so cute and I had a blast... even though it was terrifying!
