Cinderella cast. Ollie is front row all the way to the left. Del is in the middle with the pink apron and bow.
Adelia and Ollie took the funnest homeschool theater class during winter semester. The group did a theatrical version of Disney's Cinderella Kids. Adelia and Ollie were mice, and also villagers, and Del was a ballroom dancer. They both had a few lines, and learned all the dances. And we had a great time as a family going to see their end of the year production.
I loved watching how Adelia thrived in a theater setting. It's her thing. She was making friends, and practicing songs whenever she could in her spare time. And it as awesome to watch her eyes light up interacting with everyone at dress rehearsals and backstage. I think I'm going to have to figure out how to put more theater in our lives. We'll definitely be doing this class again next season.
Ollie had a good time too. But he struggled a bit with the long, late-night rehearsals. We'll see if he decides to do it next year or not.

Ollie had to be carried in by Aaron after the performance. He didn't even wake up while Aaron put his jammies on. That's one tired kid.
