The Early Years
In the year 2000 a young man named Rommel Hall became the Drama Coordinator of UCCF. At the time he didn't know much about the performing arts except that "drama was the ability to tell a story on stage". So with ideas in his head and Jesus by his side, Hall launched out into the dramatic realm.
With Hall at the helm, the UCCF Drama Group put on several full-length productions: "Stop, Think, Choose" – September 2001, "Living in the Real World" 8 March 2002 "Our Choice TV" September 2002 and "Tales From the Script" March 2003.
UCCF Drama also won a bronze award at the 2002 National Independence Festival of Creative Arts NIFCA, held in Barbados every November.
It was from UCCF Drama that Jesus Army Productions was birthed.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:
“In the early days of the world, the Almighty said to the first of our race “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread”; and since then, if we except the light and the air of heaven, no good thing has been, or can be enjoyed by us, without having first cost labour.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“To me, literature is a calling, even a kind of salvation. It connects me with an enterprise that is over 2,000 years old. What do we have from the past? Art and thought. That’s what lasts. That’s what continues to feed people and given them an idea of something better. A better state of one’s feelings or simply the idea of a silence in one’s self that allows one to think or to feel. Which to me is the same.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
