One of the things I love about the theatre is that by going on the journey to discover what makes a character do what he or she does and why, we are led closer to discovering what makes us tick, and for kids this is especially important I think. It's a life lesson we can't teach, all art brings us closer to ourselves, but there is just something about live theatre.. it's special. It is one of the things that sent me off into the wild blue yonder and at the same time saved me from myself.
Once upon a time there lived three girls. All were beautiful and all possessed different gifts. The Kingdom was all aglow with laughter and giggles for many years until one day the King stepped into the cavernous hall and heard nothing. "Wife!" he yelled."What has happened? Did everyone go into the village?" "Oh Honey" said the Queen stepping outside of her chamber wearing a bathrobe and her hair on top of her head. "They're not gone. They're teenagers." "What in God's name is a teenager?" shouted the King. "Oh dear." The queen remarked turning up her chalice of wine. "What isn't a teenager?"
