Missoula Childrens Theater

Another Year, another nervous Monday. Paige, who has been in the Missoula Childrens Theater since Kindergarten (except in 3rd grade when Paige didn't make it)and Mia, auditioned (for her second year) yesterday. Paige is so talented in this department. She makes it look easy to sing and perform in front of a large group. She may be nervous on the inside, but it never shows outwardly. Of course, she got one of the bigger parts again this year. She is the Snow Queen. Mia was more nervous, but when on stage she did awesome. Spoke loudly and clearly and is a dust bunny. I am so excited to see them perform. Last year Paige was extended an offer to go to a performing camp put on by the company, we will definitely be sending her.

Tonight at practice, the director kept saying "everyone needs to be louder..except Paige" or "see Paige's expressions/gestures..do that" or "why can't you do it like Paige" she said it was hilarious. She did say he also made fun of her for the way she got up (still nursing that hurt tailbone from snowboarding) so he would say "don't fall or you will break your butt like Paige"

Seeing the girls go through the process of auditions, rehearsals, dress rehearsals, and performance in a short week is such an amazing experience. I look forward to seeing the end result on Saturday. :)
