Sam's 7th grade class performed their play tonight (2/22) titled "Curtain Call." In short, it was a play within a play, the trials and tribulations of putting on a dramatic production. The inside play was "Cinderella", and Sam's character played the Fairy Godmother. Her big moment comes when she appears to do magic for Cinderella, but couldn't find her wand, and instead is forced to use a gaudy yellow pinwheel that looks like a big sunflower. Sam makes easy light work of her part, dancing around a bit at one point during her incantations.
Sam and her classmates look to be having a good time. No one seemed nervous and no gaffes occurred, that I could tell. Although at one point the Authoress is on stage speaking and it looked like her pearls came loose from around her neck and began to clatter on the microphone. It reminded me of a scene from the movie "Singing In The Rain". The actress gathered the loose strand into her hand without missing a beat.
High fives for everyone after it was over tonight, big smiles. One more performance tomorrow afternoon and the final curtain falls.
