Drama Camp




This is the second summer that Golda has invited neighborhood kids to participate in her drama camp. She wrote a little script for Princess Pea and gave the kids parts. I have to admit, I was impressed by all the work she put into it. Monday morning, she had all the parts written out on her white board and was ready for the little actors. The inviting process was a little haphazard, so parts had to be rearranged up until the last minute. The kids were excited. It's so funny that even on this tiny, tiny scale, some of the kids were still a little competitive about parts and lines! Ellison and Jakey emerged as the leads because 1. They can read and 2. They cared. Some of the three year olds who were rolling around on the floor, like Xanthe, got cast as peas. So cute!

Golda has really found her passion with this drama thing. That's the only way I can explain her organizing 17 little kids and teaching them lines. If your kids didn't come yesterday, hey, bring them today at ten. It's five dollars for the whole week, and it's not too late to be cast as a potted plant!

Oh no! I forgot! What time is it again? I have to wait for the dirt guy but maybe we can still come, or maybe we can be the audience at the end of the week!

Golda is such a great girl for trying to organize the mob. E is having the time of her life! I hope she can memorize her part in time and doesn't throw off the productions! Ah, the pressure.....

Golda, you are amazing! And five dollars sounds like a bargain for the week.
