So... Hi

It's Colleen and I'm sorry that I haven't been posting a lot lately. Sorry 'bout that. But I have a good reason! I was at play practice.
The play is Alice in Wonderland, and Laura and I are Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee, respectively. (Sorry for not telling you sooner Haley...)
Last week we learned all of the songs for the play, 33 in all, so that we didn't have to carry around our books for this week, Choreography Week !
We've had one day of dancing, Monday was a devoted to music review, and let me tell you my friends, that day of dancing STUNK!
Nothing against Miss Kristin, our choreographer because she did a great job of making simply wonderful and perky dancing, but those dances are so hard! Especially The Oz move in 'The Caucus Race'. The Oz, refers to the way that Dorothy, the Lion, the Tinman, and the Scarecrow skip down the yellow brick road, which is much (!!!) harder than you would think. Most of the cast don't quite have it, and those of us that do, are unsure about how good it is.
Now the whole of the dancing didn't stink, for example, the Unbirthday Song was a lot of fun. There is a lot of running and arm flailing, and cheating people out of their seats in musical chairs. In the end, everyone tricks Alice into lossing her seat, even Small and Tall Alice (we have people to play the different parts for Alice when she shrinks and grows.
