Footstool Players ... Runaway Bride

The Footstool Players "Runaway Bride" held by the 365 of FGT is cool. I've just watched it last saturday. I like the 1st, 2nd, and the last scene. The first scene, there was a priest and the bridegroom waiting for the bride... and then later the bride runs into the room clumsily. She was kind of funny... when asked her whether she will accept Him and obey Him... she just refuse some certain things and that is tithing and going for clubs and stuff... The play was cool, it can make you laugh and get serious so suddenly. I still remember the bridegroom ask the bride, "Do you love me?" a few times... and the bride just couldn't answer and walk off because she(church) couldn't submit all to the bridegroom (Jesus)... i mean their expressions are really good.

The second scene (if i've not mistaken) is about a girl taking order at the drivethru and working in McChurch... they had a sign post there with the "M" sign just liek the McD... very funny... it was hilarious in the beginning and also a bit sad at the end lor... hmmm... cause there was a girl who just want to talk and the staff just ask her to take order if not just leave. and the customer drive away being hurt and later met with an accident and the staff just treat nothing happen and continue saying the sentence, "Welcome to McChurch drivethru, may I take your order?"

I love the last scene the most... the last scene is called "Love Story". In the beginning it mentioned that there is a preacher in a church who fallen in love with a prostitude... everyone disagree with their marriage and also ask the preacher to tender his resignation. On their wedding day, though there is no one attending it, they are happy that they have each other.

She thought that everything will work, she even had 2-3 children (couldn't remember the exact number already). Due to lots of critics continuously going on, she herself slowly also believe in their words and felt that she's worthless and nothing. She left the husband and children without saying anything and just left a letter to say that she's sorry and she's not good enough for the family.

The husband went out looking for his wife desperately and one day came to a bar. He saw that there is a crowd in the bar auctioning something or someone. He saw his wife being auctioned. She is all dirty and look as if being used by a lot of men. There are a few of them saying that she only worth like 20 to 30. But then suddenly his husband took out all the money he has in him. He said, "I have 346" and then everyone was thinking that why is he offering so much to a trash like her. He then said, "wait, I have.... (digging thru his pockets) 347.16 " (can't remember the exact amount lar) so the wife was sold back to him.

Later, she refused to follow her husband... but by a few sincere and touching words (Eg: I don't care what happen to you since you left, all i know is that i love you and you are precious to me... sumthing like that), she once again find the hope in the husband's eyes that once she had felt before... aww... it was really touching...

the moral of the story is that, God has given us all He had to save us... and He will never abandon us... though we might seem unworthy or nothing in the eyes of men, but in His eyes we are something precious that He holds dear to His heart...

What can I say?... I was so touch but manage to hold my tears, haha ... the whole play was great... only little crops and they didn't even change any costume but the role they are playing is brought out clearly... sometimes some of them have 2-3 roles to play in a scene and yet u can differentiate that they had change to another character. hope that i'll get another chance to see them perform again in a different topic or sumthing. well they are great. okie dokie adios.
