It sounds like the entire experience was rejuvinating.

We lived near D.C. for awhile and went to theater in D.C. and Baltimore, but I loved the little productions in Annapolis most of all. It was so intimate and much less expensive.Bella Rumhttp://bellarum.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8503371475335347930.post-55251191976782876082009-04-28T14:28:00.000-07:002009-04-28T14:28:00.000-07:00Bonnie, this is a wonderful post.

It amplifies things I already knew, but so beautifully.<br /><br />First of all, as an (almost) unbiased observer -- and one who has done a boatload of theatre -- it was a very strong production; excellent performances, and it didn't drag. Fiddler is a long show. We didn't notice that. Lots of time with HS or community theatre, you REALLY notice it!<br /><br />And it was clear, the warmth on stage. <br /><br />For me, a joy to see my family (yes, Sharon is family, just a little more removed!)on stage -- and doing it well!<br /><br />I am sending you the photos from Dave (who took those production pix) and you can add some others to your post. (If you don't know how, let me know!) It was a wonderful weekend in every way for us. You should be proud and happy.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8503371475335347930.post-82672054274683347532009-04-28T14:04:00.000-07:002009-04-28T14:04:00.000-07:00I am so glad that you had such a marvelous time wi...I am so glad that you had such a marvelous time with the show and the cast. It sounds like it was a very lovely experience that lots of people don't get a chance to experince in their lifetimes. Being on stage and part of a live performance beats out a lot of other experiences and the bonding opportunities are fantastic and it sounds like you had a marvelous group both cast and crew.

Sheila saw me at Giant Eagle and I told her that David was very excited to be the Fiddler. She heard that I could sing and asked if I wanted to be in the show, too. I said "sure". I was totally aware of the time commitment and that is why I haven't been in a production since 1976. Unless you sat with me at services, you wouldn't have know that I sing. I felt that this would be the last time David and I could do something musical together for he is heading off to college in the fall. I am so glad I did this; we had a lot of fun back stage. We'll have to have a reunion at Ed's winery this summer. lauraljbeytashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972261528316694640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8503371475335347930.post-62975756113804366952009-04-28T08:35:00.000-07:002009-04-28T08:35:00.000-07:00This is a beautiful post, Bonnie.
Funny, too - ...This is a beautiful post, Bonnie. <br /><br />Funny, too - especially the part about bumping into you during the show. I can't get the picture out of my head. But somehow it worked on stage anyway, because if we were at a real wedding, and not acting, the same thing would probably have happened. It added realism!<br /><br />I am glad to have some time at home now, but I really miss seeing everyone from the show. And I, too, want to thank the people who came out to see the show - it means so much!Sharonnoreply@blogger.com
