There is one problem with being involved in the theater. When you plan a holiday show, the rehearsals start well before the actual holiday season. And since our Christmas show starts at the beginning of December, the rehearsal is also earlier. I don’t like to do Christmas until after Thanksgiving.
Anyway, it will my job to bring Santa Clause to life in “Miracle on 34th Street”. Ok, so I’m not playing Kris Kringle/Santa Clause, but I am playing 2 different Santa Clauses. And some other part I cannot remember right now.
For those of you who do know the show, the first Santa I play is the drunk Santa that loses his job because he was trying to stay warm on the float. One little drinks never hurt, doesh it?
To make the show even better for me, I get to act with one of my daughters again. This is always a thrill for me. Should be fun.
HAHA… I always thought the drunk Santa was a good role. I’ll be in the audience laughing it up. Love the show!
Sounds like fun all right. Have stores in your area started setting up for Xmas yet? I know the large mall by me started a couple of weeks ago. Crazy.
Lets see… I haven’t been to my former place of employment lately… it is about that time.
Yes, the stores have Christmas stuff up. In fact, they have for several weeks already. [sigh] I don’t mind craft stores so much, because you have to buy the stuff in advance to have it finished before the holiday. But who wants to buy a Christmas tree in August?!?
I agree with Draclet – the stores have had Christmas stuff up for awhile now… I can’t think about Christmas at least until it gets cold out.
CONGRATS on your parts! What role will daughter play?
