Emmy had a great time performing in her schools version of Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew". They hadn't really gotten to practice much during the year, so it was a few days of cramming in rehearsals. I loved all the costumes, very authentic looking. The kids complained they didn't know their lines, but they did very well! Emmy had a girl she was supposed to interact with miss her cue though so Emmy and six other players add libbed for a little. It worked out great.:)
They were able to go to a costume shop the night before. I loved the costumes. Emmy was Lucentio's Father Vincentio. He was a very wealthy Landowner. Vincentio comes to find someone is acting like him in a plot to deceive a fair maiden's mother. Emmy got to punch and draw a sword and declare who she(HE) was a lot. She did a great job and it was fun to see. Emmy was in a play in 5th grade where she played a male and was last to come on stage and had quite a few lines to end the show. They refered to her throughout the play. This was the same, I told her it felt like dejavu. She played a male and they made reference to her character many times and she was the last to be introduced on stage. She had 20 lines and delivered them well without any noticeable nervousness.:)
