Well, the holidays are drawing near and the busy performance weeks will be here in a flash. There are some really beautiful moments heading to the Ramona Mainstage. I can’t wait to see the audience reaction, particularly to our little Nativity during the precious “Who Would Imagine A King.” It is just lovely and I’m incredibly proud of how that number has transformed into a special lullaby.

It’s busy at the Randall house, as not only do I meet with the fantastically talented ACT’N Uppers, but I also have rehearsals with an amazing group of adult vocalists for Act I and the consummate actor, my hubby Tony, for Act II’s “The Santaland Diaries.”

The toughest part of directing, for me, is cracking the whip a little as the chaos sets in, but I believe the most beautiful gift I will receive this holiday season will be watching the production transform once it hits the stage the first week of December. Just ask the kids. I’m a big weeper and when they get it right, they get me every time!

Don’t miss “A Hometown Holiday” and be sure to check out the kids as they perform their hearts out during the month of December.
