What is the most rewarding part about being a member of The Mysteries?: The ability to have met so many different people from all over the map and just share in these stories. It takes a village, and we are a full village. There are so many pieces to the puzzle, that it makes you want to give your best because in order for the machine to work well, it takes every piece doing their duty.
Why should we come see The Mysteries?: Above all you should come because of The ANGEL CHORUS. 18 members (16 female, 2 male) sing over 15 songs in the show. Each song is captivating, endearing, epic, wonderful, exciting, and gets your heart and soul moving. I sing their songs every single night backstage and after the show. You will NEVER SEE A SHOW like this. There is pure humanity in the play. I guarantee there is a line that will make you think after you leave. There are so many lines that Lucifer says that have made my head spin. Stories I have grown up hearing from church, synagogue, or relatives, or friends and here are wonderfully portrayed perceptions of the same stories that make you THINK! They make you LOVE, and they make you grateful for what we have, right at this moment. Come take a look, you won't be disappointed.
