So, This One Time...

That was the name of Prima Donna's musical theater show that completed its last performance this evening. Drama Queen took Baby Doll and Curly to an almost sold out Copper Pit. Prima Donna has two best friends and one of them was in a car accident on the way to the school. She wasn't hurt, but she was pretty upset and that put a bit of a damper on the entire show.

I had never attended one of the musical theater shows before and I was sort of surprised that it was a dozen or so random numbers from various musicals loosely strung together on the theme. Prima Donna was in about half of them (as was most of the cast) and it was pretty exciting trying to see if they all made their costume changes in time. She told me the first night she came out halfway through one of the numbers because she literally had less than one minute to change and she didn't make it.

My favorite one she was in was as a muse from Hercules. She was the one with the most attitude, of course. Now it's on to the spring showcase in two weeks. That one is stressful for her, but she is the director, not an actor. Less than a month before school is out and my little ones go back on track on Monday.

Can't wait for summer!
