Shakespeare at The Greystone Mansion

The Changling Child

Today was Z's debut as The Changling Child in Midsummer Night's Dream.

Around 9:00 in the morning I braided her leaves into her hair and finished sewing the leaves onto her costume.

At 11:00 we were at the top of Doheny Drive and realized that the Mansion was not there.

At 11:15 after we found Doheny _Road_ we made it to the Charity Event - for Maternal Fetal Care International that Z was "working" at.

Titania and her Changling Child

1:00 was the first performance. Most of the audience was the parents of the young performers. :)

After the small turnout at the first performance Z went hawking the 2:00 show. She was _great_ at that and might have a future career as a carny. :P

2:00 had a much bigger audience.

Between 2:00 and 3:00 Z gave out like 40 more flyers. She loved talking to all the people. We got the best compliment of the day (in many days actually) and I hope you don't mind me bragging about it. but one guy, after Z gave him the flyer for the show and explained what it was about said "That is the cutest thing that ever happened to me." *hee hee*

The last show at 3:00 had a big crowd, with a lot of little kids.

It was such a fun day. Z really loved the whole experience.

Another really cool thing was the Director telling me that she heard that Z's Hannukah wish last year was to be in a movie and that if she isn't working by this coming Hannukah she will direct a short film and another person in the company would produce it and they would put Z in it. She says she loves working with Z.

I was really touched.
