Ok, so thespianism is not a real word, but it should be! My husband has been acting in plays since an early age, and I was even in shows way back when before the stage fright got ahold of me, so it’s only natural that we’ve been waiting for the chance to get our daughters involved in plays and community theater. Now that our oldest has finally reached the minimum age to participate in the local summer children’s theater, we find ourselves back in the world of rehearsals 3 nights a week – yuck to that part of it.
But we are greatly anticipating her stage debut in the Phantom Tollbooth… though judging from her audition, she is more like me on stage than her father. Hopefully she’ll overcome her shyness because she will have lots of fans in the audience! Performances are August 1, 2, and 3rd in case you’re wondering!
Added on my calendar 😀 can’t wait!
And you should submit “thespianism” to Webster’s… sounds like a good word to me
I guess I’m going to be there too. Not that I know anyone in the show.
😉
She has been the shy one, hasn’t she? Perhaps this will be her chance to open up, if just for a show. I read that book some time ago- a very interesting book. I then had a chance to start a 5th grade class on it as well when I was student teaching. I hope she enjoys it as much as I did!
Will we be seeing you there, D? 🙂
Perhaps if we meet at FunSpot! (see my post in other topic). I wonder if there is any chance gas prices will fall again by then…
