Our kids LOVE to be part of the Children's Musical Theatre that Sharee Gariety puts on! We are so glad to have such a talented friend! This year they did a cute Aesop's Fables play. Here is the before and after make up pictures of the kids! It was quite the process to help with the make up! We had real broadway make up, and the kids got to experience sitting to get painted, powdering up to set the paint, and spritzing off to seal the make up. I painted the hippo faces. When they sent home a list of what you could sign up to help with, I saw face painting, and thought that would be perfect for me! I love to pull out the eye liner pencils, and decorate the kids faces for Halloween. Oh no, this was full on Broadway face painting! It was a little intimidating when we got the step by step instructions, and I was a little nervous about pulling it off...but all the mom volunteers did a great job with our Broadway makeup 101 hands on instructions! They kids looked so cute, and it was fun to see them really enter the Jungle world once they had their faces on! It really made it an even extra fun experience! These little plays end up taking on a life of their own! :) I don't know how Sharee does it! It is amazing! By the end, I am ready to go to Hawaii for detox, and the kids love it so much they are ready for another one! :) Loralyn was painted as an elephant. Bobby was a monkey. And Lydia was thrilled to have a lead role as the mouse! She not only had her lines memorized, but she had everyone's lines memorized. And if you watched her carefully during the play, her little mouse mouth was reciting what everyone was saying! She really LOVES the whole experience After, she said,"Mom, can we find another drama camp to do?"
