School Play
Sophia had a school play today. They did a heavily modified rendition of Three Billy Goats Gruff. They had to expand the scope of the play somewhat so that all the 1st grade students had some role. Thus there were three (3) choruses (choroi), one of kids in white tee shirts, sunglasses, and jeans, one of kids in white tee shirts, denim jackets, and jeans, and a third of butterflies. There was also a swarm of bees. There was also a herd of bunnies. A few years ago Max was a bee. This year Sophie was a bunny. She did a dance number where they danced the bunny-hop in tap shoes. They did quite well. My favorite parts was when the narrator said "They crossed the bridge and then the trolls came out of hiding... [wait a little bit] ...AND THEN THE TROLLS CAME OUT OF HIDING!"
I am afraid that we didn't bring the digital camera. We did use the chemical camera a little, so a few images might surface.

I once played a raccoon in a 4th and 5th grade combo class production of "The Tortoise and the Hair." There was a song, "Popcorn and Peanuts," during which the audience got actual popcorn and actual peanuts, but the chorus only got popcorn OR peanuts. No matter, I was an artist and cared only about the authentic realization of my character.
