We had a busy night last night. It was "play night." After much drama (haha) about what the play would be and who would have what roles, it was finally the night for us to see the drama on the stage. Our oldest had a good little speaking role and everyone told us after the show that she had done a very nice job. She had :-)
It never fails to amaze me. Kids are so dang good. Because it is a very small school with a very small eighth grade class we knew it would have to be a smaller play, not even one we had ever heard of before this year. It was supposed to be a 35 minute play with two acts. There were two acts but it didn't break 25 minutes. When it was over, my youngest said "I want them to do it again!" and I felt the same way. It was just a sweet little play about a couple of mannequins in a store when the store is robbed. The kids did a great job with it. They took their roles seriously and they all pitched in to make the whole play work. They contributed items from their own homes and closets to make the set and props. And when the play was over they all stuck around to pack it all away.
Good job kids!
