Sleeping Beauty and the Good Fairy

I got us tickets to see a children’s production of Sleeping Beauty at a nearby. When we arrived, we found the children’s program director was a woman we met at Hairspray the night before. That was a fun surprise!

When we sat in the theater, we saw a row of chairs with costume pieces on each chair. We realized that likely the kids in the audience would be playing the characters. Marina and I tried to figure out each part while we waited.

It turned out, we were correct. There were three girls, including Marina, who wanted to be Princess Aurora. Marina “auditioned” but ultimately a younger girl got the role. Marina got her second choice – one of the good fairies.

The show was fun and all the kids seemed to have a good time.
