Into the Woods and Home Well After Dark

On Friday we went to see my two younger sisters perform in Into the Woods at a small Yuba City theatre. Esther played the Baker's Wife (the lead female role) and Selina played Red Riding hood. They both did wonderfully. It was so great to go see both of my younger sisters so happy doing something they love. The kids loved it too. Andrew laughed a lot. I love hearing him get some of the subtler jokes and belly laughing at them.


One of the things we didn't really expect from a small theatre was such a well planned and well done stage. Into the woods is kind of difficult because there are 6 locations and the woods that have to be depicted. They did a wonderful job taking a 30 foot stage and comfortably incorporating 6 locations. After the performance we went up on stage to greet them. The director came up and showed the kids how things worked. They loved it.



And yes, my mom did make both their amazing costumes.
Good job, girls. We LOVED it. :o)
