Marina and the Wolf

We had tickets to Peter and the Wolf at the symphony and Marina wanted to dress as a wolf. She wore the wolf hat I bought her last year at the Red Riding Hood opera with a grey dress and black leggings. Then with makeup she added a black nose and whiskers. She looked so cute!

We ran into more traffic than we expected going to the concert hall. But we managed to park in the garage and get through security with time to get drinks before going to our seats. As we went to tour seats, the symphony photographer asked if he could get a photo of ”the wolf.” Marina was happy to oblige. The crowd arrived fairly late, so the show was delayed in starting.

This performance featured a mime troop. Early on we were introduced to Maggie who played the part of Peter. The musicians who played the parts of the animals stood in for them. Even the conductor Christopher Dragon got involved in the action as the grumpy grandfather. It was a fun performance to watch.

As we left, many children admired Marina’s costume. She loved that!
