When I was in grade school, my elementary school put on a production of "Joseph and His Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Ever since then I have seen the musical countless times and still love it. When I heard it was coming to town I was so excited to take Grace. We picked the day of Jack's birthday for Grace's theater debut. We weren't exactly positive that Grace could sit and be quiet the entire time but she did so great! When we walked in we saw Grace's summer MDO teacher who was an usher. And then we saw her daughter, the class helper, was in the musical as a teen singer. Grace was so fascinated with watching Megan on the stage. During the break Ms. Jennifer told us they have been singing the songs from the musical in class all summer. So Grace already knew the songs! It couldn't have worked out better.
The only trouble we had was during intermission when Grace refused to leave her seat for a break. She was so afraid we weren't going to come back.
We have been singing "Go Go Go Go Joseph" non-stop since we got home ;o)

I love that musical too! What a great way to start Grace at the theatre!
The next time you are here to visit we will show Grace the "Joseph" tape we have with her Mom, Aunt Sarah and Uncle Craig in it.
Love,
Nana
