This sounds like a nice show but does it really need to be hosted by a church? Churches are turning into event venues. There is no problem charging for tickets for a show but I think the thing that rub people the wrong way is that its paying for a show in a church.

Many “evangelical” churches think everything has to be a show.

Exhibit A: The church service featured kids dancing and nothing else. They aren’t being taught anything.

I've been to a few events at a Chicago area mega church. The church has a big auditorium which is conducive for events that needs a stage. It has a capacity of ~7K. I've been there a few times for church sponsored Xmas shows and high school graduation events. Each time it was near capacity. I never had to pay, so I assume my relative paid or the school did.
