Hopefool Productions

Hello, Hopefool Students!

This is a post that I have been dreading for a few weeks!

After much thinking and praying, and then thinking and praying some more, I have decided to take a hiatus from teaching privately this school year.

Back in the spring, I assisted Madison Academy with their musical. In June, they contacted me and offered me a position in their fine arts department. There were several factors that made this transition appealing, but the biggest is that my hours will be the same daytime hours as my son, and I'd like to spend a lot less time juggling his schedule with mine until he is able to drive himself within the next couple of years.

I will be teaching 6th-12th grade drama. I will also be doing 12 Units per semester of distance learning this year, while remaining the Worship Director for ReFresh Worship Gatherings.

This week is the last week of summer lessons.

As I said before, this has been a VERY difficult decision. Please feel free contact me with any questions you may have.

Keep on shining,
Terrena Mann

Happy Valentines Day from Hopefool Productions!

Hopefool Productions is officially closed for the holidays. Lessons will begin again January 3, 2018. I hope everyone has a safe and blessed Christmas and New Year’s. Thank you, to all my students, who made me so merry in 2017 because you are all so bright! -Terrena Mann

Congratulations, to Hopefool Productions students: Ella Meredith Jeffreys Clark, Sarah Lovett, Kate (Emily Clark McKay) and Savannah Botters for making it into James Clemens high school cast of Joseph and the amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat! I am so proud of you all!

HOPEFOOL PRODUCTIONS WILL OFFER LESSONS OCTOBER 10th and 11th, BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, DURING MADISON CITY FALL BREAK. EMAIL OR CALL TO SCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT.

HOPEFOOL PRODUCTIONS WILL BE CLOSED OCTOBER 2nd - 6th (except to JCHS students auditioning for JATATDC, by appointment only)

Dear current and future Hopefool Students, lessons begin soon! If you have received your confirmation email with your appointment time, (with the exception of this Monday's lessons) you have the option of starting this week or next (please let me know your preference soon). I currently have a waiting list for afternoon and evening lessons the first nine weeks, but more time slots will open after fall break. Feel free to call or message me to be put on the list. Daytime lesson times are still available.

Hey, Everyone! I know I've been so busy the past few weeks that I've neglected my friends and Hopefool Productions. I'm currently directing a summer musical theater showcase for Fantasy Playhouse; as well as helping to launch a church plant in Priceville. Please be patient with me. I'll return calls starting next weekend. I haven't forgotten about you!! Lessons will resume next week! Day time slots are available for homeschoolers, college students and adults. There is currently a waiting list for afternoon and evening lessons. More afternoon and evening time slots will open up after FALL BREAK.

Looking forward to next weekend's auditions! We are looking for singers that are soulful, folkish, ready to rock, can bring it like Aretha, like to build harmonies like the Pentatonix and are ready to battle or freestyle rap in the style of the Broadway musical Hamilton. Playing an instrument is a plus. Dancers will range from ability to move well up to trained dancers. PLEASE SHARE THIS POST! It's going to be awesome!
