Let me just say I am kicking myself right now. We have a wonderful friend who works at the college here in our town. She also homeschools and was at Churchhill Downs with us for a Midsummers Nights Dream. Well she arranged for a few of us to go to a dress rehearsal of the colleges performance tonight. I thought, there won't be any need to a camera. Boy was I wrong!!! We were all standing outside the theater waiting the kids found a grassy area with trees and sticks. And well what happens with kids and sticks...they play. The director of the play sees them out there and sends the actors, in costume, outside to play with them!!!!! See why I wish I had my camera?!?!?
The play was great. They kept the kids attention and we all laughed a lot. The guy who played Bottom was wonderful....very funny. Anthony asked, "how many times did that guy die?" The actors who played Helena and Flute were pretty funny too. Towards the end Jacob came and sat in my lap for a while. He started laughing then I started laughing. His laugh always makes me laugh even harder. Anthony sat on the other side of the room and I could hear him laughing from where we were.
So thanks Jeannie for getting us in to see this play. We had a really good time. Please tell Mr. Magee again how much we enjoyed it :) Oh and Jacob said...."we got to play with the actors, when does THAT ever happen!"
