A Time to Perform in May
By Kaye Osborn
May Madness is upon us with dance recitals, music recitals, field trips, promotions, graduations and all good things that means the end of the school year. It is a busy time for sure! Try to save a date or two and catch some of the shows listed below.
My husband and I are preparing for a drama audition. We are busy memorizing and reciting words, hoping to impress the director. It is an exciting process. Fingers crossed we can be part of the ensemble! Will keep my loyal readers posted! Don’t just go to the theater, try it yourself and be a part of the action.
