Since our Church is doing a new adaptation of "The Cross and The Switchblade" I'm reading "Run, Baby, Run." That's Nicky Cruz's biography.
We used to have The Cross and the Switchblade on the shelf. I think it moved out after everyone had read it. Everyone who could read at the time.
I hope your production is a success! My church has done musicals of the Gospels, composed by Marty Haugen, famous for writing hymns that everyone likes except the kind of people who don’t like what everyone likes. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Our music director is talking about another musical next year; maybe I’ll have time to be in it, or at least try out.
