Oh boy! Oh man! Did we ever find a cool place! Right in our neighborhood, there's a little place called "East Dallas Arts." We'd seen it right across from Kroger for over a year, we didn't realize what it was. But your friend Ellie's mom told us about it...it's a theater...for kids...and they're doing acting camps all summer long!
You had never done formal acting before, but we've had plenty of experience in the Purple Curtain Theater.
We asked you guys if you wanted to do an acting camp, and before we even finished the question you excitedly said YES!!
So we signed you up!
We walked there every morning!
During this camp, you and your friends came up with a story and characters for a play. Mr. Tom (the director) took your ideas and turned it into a script.
Julia, you were RUBY, an elf princess (very on brand!)
Aidan, you were GOODAN, a goo-based warrior (very on brand!)
You guys practiced your lines every night and built your costumes!
You were having so much fun and the week went by in the blink of an eye.
Lines were learned and practiced and perfected. The audience filed in, the lights went dark, and then it was showtime.
It was time for THE EMERALD ORB!
The show was amazing because you all worked so hard on it and had so much fun! Wow! Bravo!
Amazing!
You guys had SO much fun that you didn't want it to end.
At East Dallas Arts for the next TWO weeks of FULL day camp, they were putting on a musical... MADAGASCAR JR.
We asked you guys if you wanted to do it... and before we even finished the question you excitedly said YES!!
