Before anything else, look how adorable Mihoko and the goats/sheep are!Hello readers!
Welcome to the beginning of Ballibay 2nd Session/Rock Intensive III/Farm Arts III! As I type this, our first full day of non-orientation activities is coming to a close. It has been quite the busy day as campers adjust to new cabins, new schedules, and new rehearsals. Today was also the first day of rehearsals for the 2 shows I'm directing this session: "Free to Be...You and Me" (a script-in-hand version), and "The Wiz" (the last musical of the summer!) I've got to tell you -- so far, so good!
Our activity this evening is this session's Staff Cabaret. Unfortunately, I'm not able to sing in the show as I had planned because I'm pretty vocally exhausted from all the singing we did in "Seussical" last session, but the entire campus has been abuzz with excitement for the show. I always remember how eager I was to see my own counselors perform in the Cabarets when I was a camper, and I've seen the same looks on the faces of campers all summer when the Staff Cabaret is approaching. For campers, getting to watch their guitar teacher, voice instructor, or theater director perform on-stage is elating...and I have the same kind of excitement to see my fellow staff members perform!
Here's to a great show this evening -- the first of 2nd session!
More soon,
Elizabeth C.
