The Show: How three months later, the world is a different place because of it.

September 28, 2007 was a memorable day: the premiere of the Eric & Rachel Show. Most of the words were remembered (a true miracle, especially for those of you who remember when Rachel forgot her lines for a good 20 seconds in the 2006 Christmas Concert), 2/3 of the music fell off of the piano during the middle of "A Whole New World," but Eric & Rachel continued to sing and the amazing Jenni picked up in the right spot--and they were all in the same key! The crowd loved it, and the four men in attendance and four dozen women in attendance that night all fell in love with the stars. There was even talk of additional future performances, but perhaps their day jobs (law school) have ruined that plan. Only time will tell.

Here is a picture that really could be so cute if it wasn't for their faces.

Foolishly, they attempted to swap places. Only one lesson can be learned: don't mess with perfection.

The two prima donnas had head shots on the wall--so small and crooked, it made the lovely living room appear more like a cheap parlour. But perhaps that was the proper effect after all.

The Curtain. Luckily a backstage was created, enabling the performers to remain unseen until their opening number. And what a number it was--what a show! A tale of faith, passion, betrayal, and love...but for whom?

Luckily this promotional website for a one-time event that occurred three months ago has been completely forgotten, and thus the complete understanding of what this concert entailed and the magic that ensued needn't be explained on an unread blog. Until next time...
