The Wizard of Oz

This was the big weekend! The weekend the girls have been working towards for months! The Wizard of Oz! CC was a munchkin (silks) and a winkie (hip hop), while Sweet Pea was .... (drumroll please) .... THE COWARDLY LION! She had auditioned for Toto, and was floored when she ended up being cast as a lead performer.



Sweet Pea and CC did great. We thoroughly enjoyed the performance, and all four grandparents were in attendance, which made it extra special. During the weekend, both girls had multiple friends come see them perform -- such a wonderful showing of support!


Because the girls took the same hip hop class, they performed a number together, and did a partner cartwheel. Sweet Pea thankfully did not drop CC on her head like she had several times in rehearsal!


After each show, the director presented awards. Sweet Pea won the Perfect Attendance Award, and CC won the Most Improved Award. Wow! We're so proud of them both. And as they are both auditioning to be in the Company, we are crossing our fingers that their schedules will align next year. Wish them luck!
