Severe Weather Forecast!

WEATHER WARNING!

A heavy snow storm is expected to hit Glendale, California THIS WEEKEND.  The wrath of the Snow Queen (Alyssa Thompson) is great and mighty, and the weather center announced today that we may be in for one of the longest-running storms in history, lasting many years!  Unconfirmed reports indicate that the Snow Queen is under the alluring spell of a mystical and magical mirror that was created by an Evil Sorceress (Kelsey Glidewell).  The storm will begin with tiny delicate snowflakes, gathering momentum before the flooding begins to overtake the River (performed by CCYB).  We predict that the floods will be very strong and we advise the Enchantress (Amanda Hart) to protect her garden and to take extra care of the delicate Rose (Julie Sanches).  Flights are restricted to the north and any aircraft and particularly birds, such as The Crow (Armando Yearwood) and his Sweetheart (Isabella Bunting), are advised to remain grounded until show time. To the northeast, below-zero temperatures may cause widespread mischief and any Gypsy Man or Gypsy Woman (Emma Mesrobian) should take cover.  There is also much concern about forest creatures, particularly the smaller delicate animals.  However, many of the ferocious Wolves, Panthers and Bears are well-clothed, and they should prove strong enough to adapt to such conditions. While travel advisories are in place, animals such as our Reindeer (Andy Lawson and Isabella Bunting) certainly will not be affected by the cold and experts agree that such animals provide good protection and ideal companionship if forced to travel during the storm.  There is much discussion in the village regarding reports of a sighted Guardian Angel (Kayla Stepanian).  Fearing the storm, many are praying that the Guradian Angel will find a way to protect the entire village and deliver us all from the storm as soon as possible.

While taking steps to secure the castle, the Prince (Nick Zerman) and Princess (Laura Mauldin) are rumored to be optimistic that the storm will avoid the area... since the sun always shines at the castle.  The royal couple has already sent invitations to all of their constituents throughout the countryside to take cover at the castle, just in case any townsfolk need a safe haven. Invitations delivered personally by the Coachman (James Keen) include a celebration, once the storm breaks. 

During the storm, Randy Tobin's newly enhanced musical composition will provide dramatic thunder bolts, while we hope Erin Holt's choreography will deliver enough magic and love between our new sweethearts, Gerda (Kelsey Glidewell) and  Kai (Rob Westin) , enabling them to brave through and eventually defeat the storm. We all know that the power of love is very strong and can defeat anything.
