Until Born for This, I had never felt so much emotion listening to a CD, and I have not since. I too, knew it had to be performed for the people of our small town Bromyard in Herefordshire, England. All who were involved in the production [which we also performed in costumes of the time] were affected emotionally
and spiritually by the emotive narration and superb songs. Feed back from members of the audience and theatre staff all agreed it was a wonderful prelude to Holy Week devotions. In conjunction with Born for this, we ran a local art competition, and invited amatur artists to paint a Station of the Cross. These were the photographed on to transparencies and projected onto a large screen above the stage. the original paintings were then displayed in various shop windows in town, and on Good Friday the Churches in Bromyard united for a procession of Witness through town, stopping at each window for meditation. I wish you,Dan, and your community many more Born For This experiences!
