First Musical

Last week, our kindergartener attended her first ever musical production. Her class travelled by bus to Concordia University, and were joined by several other schools. The musical was entitled "Goldirocks," a humorous spin on Goldilocks and the Three Bears. It's the story of a young girl who loves playing her guitar, but after several noise disturbance complaints, her guitar is taken away. She runs away to the woods, where she stays in a cabin belonging to three bears. When the bears return, they are initially startled to find her, but manage to convince Goldirocks to return home.

I was able to attend as one of six "chaperons" from my daughter's class. I sat next to my daughter and her friends. They were truly enthralled by the interactive musical. Every once in a while they would ask funny questions like "when is it starting?" (it had started already), and "where are the bears?" (they were looking at them, I guess they were expecting actual bears as opposed to actors dressed as bears).

All in all, they had a fantastic time, and couldn't stop singing the songs as we headed to the bus afterwards.
