Carli and Nick were the stars (to us anyway) of the show. They did 10 performances of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory last week and enjoyed every minute of it! What kid doesn't love being on stage? We are very lucky to have a wonderful drama teacher at West Valley, Ms. Bailey, who takes our little stars and puts them on stage. On top of her cast of high school kids there were about a dozen "Little Oomps." There are also lots of wonderful high school kids in the show, Jamie (the "big Oomp" in the photos) took great care of the kids.
They have been practicing since October and last week they spend 2 school days, 2 evenings and all day Saturday at performances and hanging out back stage. They had to do all their school work in between shows, just like real stars. Grandma and Grandpa Goins were able to come and catch the final show with us. It was a long, but exciting week, and I am happy to say that we finally removed all the make-up!
