So musical rehearsals have begun for
Brigadoon. In the German-written musical, in the small imaginary town of Brigadoon, not much ever changes. There is a miracle every hundred years and the miracle is coming up soon. Everybody in the musical (we have a cast of about 95 plus children once they start rehearsing with us) was assigned a family. I have a father, mother, and sister so far. I hope to have a child assigned to my family!

I have to wear character shoes that are hard to adjust to, but I'm getting used to them. The girls have to wear the ones pictured to the left and the guys have to wear black shoes. The specialty dancers have to wear Irish dancing shoes (ouch!). I don't have a role, I'm just in the chorus. But I do have some scenes that I dance in. It's exciting.

Also, we had to purchase very nice, professional makeup kits that will be used. So far, the musical is turning out pretty well. I've learned three whole songs and two dances. It's a lot of hard work but so much fun! Keep watching, I'll have more to come soon about the musical! I hope to have a weekly update of how the musical is going.

How fun! Yeah, character shoes are hard for me to get used to, too.
I'm worried because I don't want to fall. Hahaha
