The Gallatin First Christian Church will host a presentation of the Oaks Boys’ musical “Star Queen” at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 16.
John Thomas Oaks loves Jesus, people, and music (in that order). Along with his father and co-writer, Tommy, they have written more than 50 stage musicals, many which have been produced and performed in school tours, civic clubs, community theatres, professional summer theatre seasons, trade schools, dinner theatres, churches, and other venues. JT is an alumnus of the BMI/Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshop and a member of the Dramatists Guild.
“Star Queen” is a musical based on the story of Queen Esther and celebrates a victory over an evil tyrant through the cunning ingenuity of this young Jewish queen of Persia. The story of Esther is also the impetus for the popular Jewish holiday of Purim. It has been performed for thousands of people across the United States including a tour of the IMPROV Comedy Clubs in West Palm Beach, Tampa and Miami, FL.
The performance is free of charge as are the additional events planned for the weekend of Oct. 15-17: Friday, 6:30 p.m. “Preglow”, 7 p.m. revival service followed by “Afterglow” (indoor campfire with camp-style sing-along, time of prayer); Saturday, 6:30 p.m. “Preglow”, 7 p.m. performance of “Star Queen” followed by “Afterglow” with high school youth; Sunday, 9 a.m. worship service with Oaks Boys preaching and leading worship, followed by a carry-in outdoor brunch in the pavilion, devotion at the cross, hike and devotion at a location to be determined (not super strenuous or long).
Kyle Taft is the FCC pastor.
