* Friday was a great performance day for our four Tableau groups:
-Dania, Caylin and Kayla were the resident medics overseeing the very pregnant Quintyn as he gave birth on stage to his baby, Ryan. I must admit there were some looks of total surprise in our audience, but they all gave a fine performance. A most memorable tableau story.
- Donovan and his helpers created a vicious lawnmower with some really fantastic facial expressions. Donovan's group will present on Tuesday when Fawez and Marco return to class.
- Elizah, Danielle and Suzanne created wonderfully diverse students for Brittany's classroom. Of course, Brittany was a model teacher, so why weren't those students behaving properly? The scenes were easily recognizable, told a complete story, and made sure ( by 'cheating') that our audience didn't miss anything by looking at someone's back.
-Hunter was the wild animal in the forest and Roger, Alli and Cooper took turns driving the ATV and taking aim. The body language and focal points created for this tableau performance were outstanding.
Thanks to everyone for their hard work and effort in preparing these performances.
Tuesday, we will continue with Mime and move into stage vocal preparations on Thursday and Friday. If you think you can bring in a copy of one of Dr. Suess' books, please do so by Thursday.
Have a great Family Day Weekend.
"You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown"
Auditions are now complete, and our Cast List was posted on Friday. Congratulations to everyone who will be preparing for our stage performance of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown", May 9, 10 and 11.
If you won't be on stage performing, maybe there's a place for you backstage doing tech, lights or sound. Props and sets must be built, along with costumes. We will also need hair and make-up people. Talk to Mrs. Phelps, Mrs. Bridger, Ms. Reinders or me, Mrs. Sawatsky, if you want to be part of this charming stage production.
