Saturday, our homeschool group performed the musical, A Dragon for Dinner.
Here’s the cast…which includes a storyteller, a king (Asa), a queen, a princess, maids, a gardeners boy, a prime minister, a security guy (Justus) and a two headed dragon.
Here’s King Asa and Security Guy Justus. (um, Justus doesn’t really have buck teeth…but it kinda looks that way in this picture.) :)
And here are two of the sweetest girls EVER!! (Matt and I are working out contracts with the parents of these girls for arranged marriages for two of our boys…)
A few more shots…
Ah, I wish you could have been there! It was a proud, sweet moment for parents, that’s for sure! These kids worked SO HARD and did such a great job!
Oh, and thankfully, this fairy story had a happy ending…as everyone remembered their lines…the scenery stayed in place…the dragon did not eat the princess…and everyone lived happily ever after.
Aw, how sweet they all look! I so wish I could have been there to see the play! Wait, you said it was a musical – did they SING too?? WOW! Thanks for sharing the pics!
Yes, there was lots of singing. Asa even had a solo. We were SO proud of him. Well, of all of them….the singing was great! I have all kinds of little dragon songs in my head now!
Cute! As for the arranged marriage thing… My mom had “arranged” for me to marry her best friend from York’s son who was a few months older than I. We met a few times and it was *way* more than awkward. :-P Mom brought it up over the years a lot more often than I preferred. Then he wound up having a kid with some gal he dated when he was just out of HS, and that finally shut her up about it. I was *so* relieved :-P
How fun! They looked great, and I bet they sounded great too!
How fun it THAT!!!!!!!!!!
sigh…is…is THAT!
