Life after the Shakespeare Play

The Cast of "The Comedy of Errors"
I think it's finally sinking in that the show is over.

Wow.

For a number of reasons, this was the most STRESSFUL time I've ever had directing a show. BUT, it was still wonderful; I love all my actors and their parents, and I think they still love me, so it's all good. *wink*

Some of the gorgeous girls in our show
I am especially pleased with how the costumes turned out. We had some great seamstresses helping us! (Thank you Mom, Heather, Toni, Staci, Audrey,and Samantha! Oh, and I sewed some, too.)

Here are some photos of the cast in action on stage, as well as goofing off. I'm sure going to miss these kids!!!

About this year's show:

We set Shakespeare's "The Comedy of Errors" in 1774 Jamaica, and it was SO FUN!!! The cast did great, and we had some wonderful audiences. I'm tired, and a bit relieved it's all over, but at the same time, I miss all my actors and the team we formed these last few months.

I love you, YES Kids!!! See you at the cast party!!!

Love,
Mrs. K.
