Saturday December 14th. We had to be at the auditorium by 10 a.m., with curlers in, for the onstage class.
Mason got to help set up lights. He was pretty excited! I didn't get Elise's makeup done before performance time--thank goodness for a team of volunteers backstage! My mom is doing her hair, a classmate her eyeshadow and her chaperone the rest of her face. :) Mason didn't get his makeup on until the curtain went up...I was so busy making sure everyone else had their costumes and setting up the Silent Auction that my own kids were neglected!
Elise got to dance the role of Clara--en pointe! There are few things I love more in life than watching her dance.
Dream Scene, then with the Nutcracker Prince. It was beautiful!
We flew in professionals from Ballet West in Utah to dance the roles of Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier. They were amazing!!
Backstage
Mason was a gingerbread cookie. He had tons of fun, even though he wasn't planning on doing it at first.
