Liberty and Adleigh performed in their show tonight! North Pole Musical was a hit! They worked so hard on their dance moves and perfecting their songs. Their voices carried throughout the theatre! We are so proud of them!

And Rhonda came!!

Stagelights started this week. The girls are in “North Pole Musical” and Canton will star as “Buddy” in Elf the musical! Super proud of this talented and hard working bunch!

Canton is Prentiss in the production of Peter and the Starcatcher with Williamsburg Players. Mike is working on the crew and did a ton of set building! He’s such a great dad to take on all the duties to support Canton!

Canton has had many shows with Sam and Alex, it has been wonderful to watch them all grow! Sam is a senior, Alex a junior, and Canton a freshman.

Big bro gave a tour of the set between shows

Some pictures from the show

Canton will next be onstage with Stagelights in Elf jr!

Some more Mary pictures from other parents. What a fantastic group of people!! Can’t wait for the future productions!!

Holy moly! Wowza! I cannot even describe what it was like to be in the auditorium, 650+people per show, to feel the energy and watch these kids put on the most incredible show I’ve ever seen! So many hours went into this production! The choreography, the set, the voices! Pure heaven!

Special congratulations to Mike as the “Director of Magic” for this production! He made the magic table and hutch that break during “Spoonful of Sugar” that Mary fixes. He spent so many hours perfecting these pieces, I hope the gasps from the crowd help him feel the appreciation of all his work! It was magic!

Canton worked so hard during this run. He was in the lead dance group which means he was dancing a lot more than the rest of the kids and his routines were much more complex. I wish you all could have seen “Step in Time”, I forgot they were high schoolers! We are just bursting with pride over his vocal and dance performances, he was certainly the anchor of the ensemble, you could hear him over 40 kids! I just cannot wait to see what this kid does next!

Adleigh is so fun to watch in Christmas Carol! She has so much expression and her voice is loud and clear! She truly enjoys her time on the stage! She had a show last night and didn’t get home until after 11, bed near 12 and still wanted up at 745 this morning to go do 3.5 hours of gymnastics and two shows today! I am in awe of her passion!

And Liberty played harp in the lobby before the show! What a talented trio that I am so blessed to call mine!

Canton took the the JHS stage for the first time last night in Trip to the Moon. He has been involved with the fall competition play “Donut Dollies” which will compete in the state championship in Charlottesville tomorrow!

Trip to the Moon is a series of vignettes centered around the moon landing. Canton plays Jack, the charismatic and annoying little brother of a family in one scene, and in another, he plays Brett, a well to do young man trying to cope in Vietnam.

Last night after the show, he was presented with three roses and notes from Rhonda, Beth, and Poppy and Grandma. This was such a nice gesture of love and support! Much appreciated! Canton has two more shows and then auditions for the musical next week!
