Promised Valley

Who was involved in the Stake production of "Promised Valley"? And what part was played?

It was you, but Mom can't remember what part you played. She said, "I'll remember it when he puts it on the blog."

I remember either shirts, or scarfs with polka dots on them. I remember a wash tub. I remember an amphitheater. I remember "older boys" telling stories....

This was kind of a trick question because, as I recall, three of us boys were in the play. We all played children of one of the families. There were seven or eight children who ranged from tall to short like the bars on the varizon comercial. We all had to come out on stage with our wash tubs which also ranged from large to small. I know that Kendell and myself were in the play, and I also think that Dean was. But I'm not 100% sure on that. We practiced at the Stake Tabernacle deveral times. During these times, there was a lot of "down time" where we had to wait. Brian Clark was one of the older children in the play and during these times, he introduced us to adult jokes and humor unknown to children of our upbringing. Nevertheless, we did survive this excursion into Satan's domain.
By the way, we all had polka dot shirts which had been handed down from the oldest to the youngest, and were faded so that the oldest was almost new and the youngest was faded out beyond recognition. If any of the older siblings can remember more details, feel free to illuminate.
