Did You Get to See Her?

The CV theatre department wrapped up their production of, Wait Until Dark last night. The show was fanatastic. I was particularly biased towards one performer and thought she did a wonderful job. Katelyn played the part of Gloria--a bratty 12-year old girl who helps the blind Suzie. I know Katelyn is a good actress because she really sold the "bratty" part of her character and if you know Katelyn, you know that this is about as far from her personality as one can get. She also got to practice knife-throwing, so if this acting thing or criminal justice (her current career choice) don't work out, maybe a knife-throwing career? Katelyn really is in her element when she is on-stage. I love that she has found something that she is so passionate about. I think it's great that we have a right-brained child even though she lives in a house with left-brained people. Although, we did decide that Carson and I were "middle-brained" since he enjoys, and is good at, writing and I enjoy much of the arts. Dave? Well, he's an engineer for a reason. The next show is Sound of Music and Katelyn is gearing up to tryout for the part of Leisel (sp?). That's the part she wants, but she says she'll take anything just to be part of the show. So, if you missed this last production, be watching for information about Sound of Music. The run dates are in March. Come and see what a great job these high school kids do.
