WELCOME!

WELCOME!
We are a young group of volunteers from the Family International who've come together to form a theatre group in London.

With our plays, we address controversial and difficult issues everybody faces in today's society. We perform all over London and the UK with one goal in mind:

Encouraging our audience to take control of their futures, and challenging them to make a difference!

Squeeze, Don't Jerk!

Another awesome thotbyte for y'all!
-- Heather ;).

SQUEEZE, DON'T JERK!
- By D.B.Berg




There is hardly anything that can be enjoyed in a hurry!-- A glass of wine, a walk, a talk, a ride, a view, a meal or an embrace!

GOD IS HARDLY EVER IN A HURRY! It takes Him time to make a baby, a flower, a tree, a sunset, or even a blade of grass. He is hardly ever in a hurry, UNLESS HE IS ANGRY! He hardly ever does anything suddenly--except Judgement!

Speed kills! Haste makes waste! Patience takes faith! If you're in a hurry, you miss things, lose things, forget things & wear out quickly.


If you go slow, you get there quicker--at least you get there. If you stop to LOOK before you LEAP, you may not HAVE to leap at all! A MISS is as good as a MILE!

In the army we had targets that moved, or were there just for a moment & then disappeared. Some were in such a hurry they got so excited their rifles waved around & they jerked the trigger so quick it jerked the whole rifle & caused them to miss the mark!

I took time to rest my elbow FIRMLY, hold my rifle SECURELY, aim ACCURATELY & SQUEEZE the trigger SLOWLY!


Rest in Jesus! Patience takes faith. Difficult times breed patience, because they COMPEL you to trust in God, to have faith in God for the outcome!



Sometimes people get very impatient with me, because I don't answer them immediately when they ask me a question. But it takes TIME to THINK & be sure you give the RIGHT ANSWER. Anybody can shoot off his mouth immediately, but is he really saying anything? Be slow to speak & slow to anger.

Go slow, take your time, you'll enjoy it more! You'll get more out of life.


So squeeze, don't jerk, or you'll miss the mark!

Where to next?



The Four Horsemen team will be making their next appearance at:

Reading on Saturday, 21st of March

For those who make it over there, we'll be heading back to a hotel room later on to perform some never-before-seen skits, amongst other surprises (evil chuckle). So pop over and join in the action!

(BTW, I was really wanting to put some EXTREMELY lame joke in here about 'reading between the lines'...but it just didn't flow :P...I know. I'm HILARIOUS. I'd make Bill Bailey blush *lolz*)

Four Horsemen exclusive...

And here's the promised INTERVIEW *blows trumpet*.

The quality is atrocious but its worth the squinting, lol. Two thumbs up for Georgie and Elsie!

Takin' it downtown, Four-Horsemen style...

(Josh, Raphy, Sam, Lani and Shaun with new pals in Uxbridge)

Finally back with updates in the form of all the media from our Four Horsemen afternoon in Uxbridge. Our team once again embraced new members (Marc and Etta, who teamed up to play Fashion). The Four Horsemen street play itself also returned for the first time in 2009! *whoop of triumph*.


(Heather with Georgie and Elsie!)

We met up with Georgie and Elsie, two rocking chicks who we met during our previous stint in Uxbridge. (It was well fun seeing you girls again!)

Actually, these two need their own paragraph. They cheered us on faithfully even though they were freezing cold almost the entire afternoon, and even participated in the Everything play (as, yep, you guessed it; THE DRUNKS).

(Spot the odd ones out...:P)

How'd they do?
Ten out of ten, that's how! They even let us interview them (I'm still trying to get that video off Sam, girls - bear with me).


(Lani with a musician who was performing not far from our spot)

Anyway, 'nuff said. It was a smashing, Four-Horsemen afternoon - that pretty much sums it up. Peace, people!


(Marc, le French Connection...)

("We introduce to you today...")

(The Colorful Sock Clan...the one with the boot is mine, ppl! :P)

And... another vid for you all! :D

The Four Horsemen skit in Uxbridge, March 15th!

Reading Ramblings....

("Come along Humphrey....if we shake the jar long enough, the Lego WILL form itself into a car! It's SCIENCE!")

The team went to Reading last weekend (still working on getting more pix from that). We weren't able to perform on the street this time but we did meet up with some people at the hotel room we use there.

(Home Sweet Home: Our center's kitchen recovering from the aftermath of our pre-departure lunch...yeah we're a messy lot, I know :D)

Mayhem ensued! LOL. Nah not really. I wasn't actually there, but I heard it was lots of fun! Josh and Sam teamed up to put on some hilarious short skits and there were games all around.
I promise pix, ppl. Honest :D.

Attention all Uxbridgers...

That's right. WE'RE BACK, BABY!

For all our wonderful Uxbridgers (Elsie, Demi, Georgie, Becky and everybody else), our team will be in:

Uxbridge High Street on Saturday, March 14th.
SO BE THERE, PEOPLE!

(P.S I'll be posting exact times etc as well as updates in the chat box. If you want to meet up in Uxbridge, just pop us up there. See ya!)

Back in Black...(and white)...

The Four Horsemen team took to the streets of Uxbridge last Saturday, in full form out of their winter hiatus to perform the Everything skit - that's right, stage make-up and all, people! :D

We had a host of new faces performing for the first time (Bella and Amber, who conjointly played the role of Fashion, Raph, who played Money, and Lani who joined Shaun as the happy go lucky drunken pair).

But it still went amazingly well. We got huge crowds each of the five times we performed that afternoon and met a slew of amazing people (Georgie, Elsie, Demi and everybody else - you guys rock!).

The most interesting event of our day would had to have been when we met two wonderfully wild girls who wanted to take part in the drama. And take part they did - as the drunks in the Everything skit. It was a little haphhazard and certainly not our finest performance (I fell down I don't know how many times), but it was lots of fun and made for a unique experience nonetheless.

Pix on the way soon, everybody, so please bear with me. I just got back from three days of childminding for my sister, and this video (drumroll) is the only thing I have for you so far. It's the performance with the two girls - not exactly Spielberg material but it's the first recording we have of our humble Everything play. Enjoy!
