Congrats to Michael and Lauren for their hard work on the fall production of Web of Murder!Last week was brutal. They'd get home from school at 3, do chores, homework, etc. I would have to help Lauren with her "old woman hair" -- which meant blow drying out her hair, moussing it back to put in a ballet bun and then applying the "grey" (baby powder). This was an hour process -- EVERY DAY. Then we'd all gulp down some sort of dinner (mostly sandwiches) by 5:20 and we'd all head back to school. They would be there until 9:30 or 10 ...... It was exhausting for everyone but the shows were terrific!
Lauren was amazing and really performed her part so well. So many folks came up to us and congratulated her in disbelief that this was her first performance. I'm not trying to brag, but she really was the best actor up on stage. When we get the video up on YouTube, I'll post the link.
Michael was responsible for building the set and it was gorgeous! Wish I had a pic of it, but the light was too dark.
Anyway, Danny and I were OH SO PROUD. It was great meeting the parents of the other actors. The parents and the kids are all a great group of folks. Truly a wonderful experience. But we, ALL of us, are glad its over.
