I have the very great privilege of working closely with a great group of home school moms. Not only are their children delightful, but the moms have lofty goals for their kids. We are able to work together to push and provide a better and more "full" education for all of the kids. A recent example of this was a production of Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Two of the girls decided they wanted to do the play, their mother graciously got on board and transcribed a script, the 12 kids in the play learned their lines in a week, they banged out three rehearsals, and the result was a lovely performance. I'm so glad my kids had the opportunity to participate in this wonderful event.
Annie was Hippolyta (a part consisting of one line). For Annie, there was as much thrill in saying the name "Hippolyta" over and over and over for the past week as there was in actually playing the part. It
is fun to say. Try it.
Corban made an appropriately mischievous Puck and Jakin played Oberon.
