It's a Wonderful Life

The lights have been dimmed,

the props and sets are put away,

the makeup has been washed off,

and we are all reflecting

on our experience with joy and gratitude!

Our drama production of

It's a Wonderful Life

with the Jubilate Deo Chorus

was a rip-roaring success.

Following are some videos I took during the final performance

on Saturday, May 15, as well as some still shots

from that evening and some of our rehearsals.

I wasn't able to record the entire show,

so there are bits and pieces missing,

but you'll certainly be able

to see our kids in these clips!

Enjoy!

First Show Done

Tonight was our opening night of the kids' musical, "It's a Wonderful Life." All I can say is that these kids were amazing. The entire cast was stupendous. The crowd was roaring with laughter and absolutely loved Joshua's rendition of Mr. Potter. John crooned out his solo and nailed all of his lines--he was fantastic! Shannon was delightful in her three different roles, singing and dancing her way into everyone's hearts.

We have two more nights of performances. The kids have been told they are required to rest tomorrow and Saturday. Such a bummer, I know. Imagine homeschool children who have been assigned two days off wanting to read, write, and work on their computer graphics classes anyway! Yep, those are my kids.

I'm savoring their moment and enjoying being a drama mom this weekend! What tremendous fun. Pictures will be forthcoming, but I don't want to ruin it for those of you who have yet to still see the show.

For the family,

Liz

It's Show Time!
