Ally always comes across as shy, but one of her favorite things to do is act. When we found out about auditions for Heritage Theater's showing of Roger & Hammerstein's Cinderella, she was excited to try out. I didn't really think she would make it, but out of the fifty kids who tried out she was selected to be a child/mouse. Yay!
**As a side note I should probably mention that the director is my Visiting Teacher who she has taken theater classes from. But still it's very cool that she thought she could do it. :)
Here she is in front of the Cinderella sign. Isn't she the cutest "child" ever?
Here's her good friend Kayla who's Mom we have been able to carpool with to practices and performances. And let me tell you, there have been a lot of practices and performances. Three practices a week starting in January with 16 performances starting the end of February. Whew! She has been a busy girl!
The cute little Cinderella carriage out front of the theater. It's a really neat place to go to for plays. She loves performing. Her favorite parts are "The Prince is Giving a Ball" and the shoe scene where all the woman are trying on the shoe for the prince. Ally sneaks up, steals the shoe and runs around the audience! So fun!
The funnest part has been having friends and family come see the show. Thanks for coming Aubrey and Katelynn!
Here she is greeting the guests after the show. As a proud Mom, I think she does a great job. But I have had many people tell me that she has great stage presence and their eyes are naturally drawn to her on stage. That's my girl! It has been a very enjoyable and memorable experience!
