My Take on Charlie Brown
Some of you may already know this, but I am doing Your'e a Good Man Charlie Brown (Revised) at my high school. Today we performed for over 400 elementary kids (SO MUCH FUN!) and we will do it tomorrow as well. Then we will have three community performances. The cast has done well and I am really proud of them. But, typical of most "ARTISTS", life imitates art and art imitates life....
I have said it before but my 4yo daughter is completely LUCY! Every rehearsal reminds me of it. My Queen had a moment this week! Poor hubby has had to deal with 7yo son and her all week when I kept coming home late from musical practices. Turns out that while he was helping our son make a rocket for school, she was CUTTING HER HAIR!!!! Ugh! After the usual reprimands, she looks in the mirror and says "I look like Dora!" AAAHHHHH!!!!
There are lots of scenes that remind me of life from this musical- I am constantly CHASING RABBITS in my long list of things to do; my attempt at making ART, ART, ART without large pay :); and honestly, trying to "not make a scene" like Charlie Brown!
But nevertheless I love the work. And I love the challenge. And I love the patient family....
