My daughters like to perform. My oldest did trapeze. This about caused her mother to have a heart attack. (Me). Way up in the air, with only a thin mat to cover the concrete floor below her! Yikes! My middle daughter sings and acts, but tries not to dance, because frankly she is not good at it. It is not from lack of trying, just the way it is. My youngest sings as well. She loves to perform and took dance for years, so we will never have to worry about that.
Our most recent show is my middle daughters. “It’s A Wonderful Life” performed by the Young Peoples Theater. Quite a treat to see those 15 year olds, all greyed up with spray and acting like 70 year olds. Tee hee. I had many reservations about the performance. How in the world can you find this to be believable? But indeed they did. It was really quite enjoyable.
My daughter had been cast as a townsperson. She did a wonderful job. She was in many of the scenes, as the townspeople made up about 75% of the performance. She did have to do some dancing, but she just tried to stay in the background and smile big. The costumes were done very well and even though some of the kids were “over eldered”, on the whole it looked very good.
It was a great way to kick off the holiday season with a classic show to get you in the mood and performances were sold out at every show!
