'The Adventures of Elisha' underway!

G'day everybody,
Our new show 'The Adventures of Elisha' has had a fantastic start. We had opening night a week ago and this is a sample of what the punters had to say:
"Gripping and engaging..."
"Excellent. We'd heard about you & the experience was even better than the reports."
"Fantastic; clever use of humour and yet appropriate reverence of God's word."
"I'd move you to the frontyard! That was great! Thanks!"
Make sure you don't miss out. There is a list at the bottom of this email with the dates and venues of the shows coming up.
Or you can check them out directly from our website here (with a map and a calendar):

Two Extra shows
We've just booked two more shows - one on Sunday the 26th of October in Melbourne and the other on Sunday November 9th in Sydney. Check the list at the bottom for the times and the dates of all the remaining shows.
Network of Biblical Storytellers Annual Gathering
As I've mentioned in a previous email - the Network of Biblical Storytellers is having their annual conference later this month from Friday October 24th to Sunday October 26th. Time is running out to book in. Check out information here:

The Backyard Bard Store
We just got our new T-Shirts in - so those that were wanting them can buy them from any of the shows.
The Elisha Audio CD will be out soon. They are $10. Please tell me if you want one - or you can order it at any of the shows.
Due to hard drive failure, the production of DVDs of Elijah has been postponed for a bit. Hopefully we'll be able to have them out by the Elisha show at St Hillarys on Wednesday the 22nd of October.
Audio Christmas Cards are coming again this year with 6 different designs. Each card contains an audio CD with Backyard Bard storytellers telling the Christmas story from Isaiah, Matthew and Luke (of course with the appearance of the trademark Scottish angels!). It's a fantastic and unique way to share the original stories with your friends and family. The are $6.50 each or $5.50 each for 5 or more. You can order precisely how many you want for each of the designs.
Check out the posters below to get a feel for the designs of the Christmas Cards:
Thanks,
Rob
