Wow, nothing, and now three posts in one day! Okay, so I will not prolong this for too much longer I promise. On March 8th 2018, the Da Vinci School for Science and the Arts traveled to Wink High School in Wink, Texas to compete in the 2018 District 6-2A U.I.L. One Act Play competition, where we competed against shows from Anthony, Fort Hancock, Van Horn, Wink, McCamey, and Iraan High Schools. Here were the results: All Star Crew...............................................................................................................Warren Goodell Honorable Mention All-Star Cast..............................................................................Martha Garcia Ethan Summer Alternate Production.....................................................................................The Actor's Nightmare Da Vinci School for Science and the Arts Cast and Crew of The Actor's Nightmare By Christopher Durang. Great job everyone!!! Now we have a set of these. Next year's award will read "Advancing Play"!! One final note of thanks I must give, and that is to a woman, without whom, none of this would be even remotely possible. Each year, she takes time off from her day job, to transport set pieces, and pick up borrowed costumes, she helps police hotel hallways, and makes runs to get emergency supplies, and food for our students, and more often than not, she puts up with a husband who often pays for things for his productions out of his own pocket, without hope of recouping it, as he tells her by doing it he is "investing in his program". She has supported her husband, who has had as his lifelong dream the burning desire to direct young actors and actresses on stage, helping them to be the best that they can possibly be. mentoring and helping them to hone talents many of them never knew they even had, instilling in them confidence in their work, and in their creative process, much as his own mentors once did for him. That very special woman who wears so many hats, and does so cheerfully, is my muse, and my precious wife, Rhonda Davidson. Thank you so much, Sweetheart! I love you with all of my heart!!
