The Columbus Children's Theatre kicked off a celebration of their 50th Birthday with the Columbus Youth Jazz Orchestra on August 2 at the Columbus Commons. A beautiful night, Mark Donavan led the CYJO in a Duke Ellington roundup of smooth jazz. The young, talented troupe played like seasoned professionals as they showcased their mature skills. Making an appearance from the swamp land was Shrek and Fiona as they danced with the crowd to "I'm a Believer", promoting their show at the Lincoln Theatre September 19-29.

Since my last post we have gotten about a week's worth of previews under our belt. I figured the crowds would settle a bit after those first couple of absolutely wild preview audiences, but it appears the audiences are only getting more enthusiastic as we go! Each crowd is a little different and has its own personality, but they are all incredibly encouraging and vocal which we absolutely love! We are greeted daily at the stage door by smiling fans with posters, playbills, and sharpies in hand waiting for autographs. The support has really been overwhelming, and we could not be more grateful for the love our audiences and fans have already shown us. After all, what is live theater without an audience? Thank you all for spreading the word, for tweeting and posting about us, and most importantly for coming to see the show!
