It was the Nutcracker Suite and she played a child with a teddy (all the beginners did). I think she showed more natural grace than most of her class..... but that may just be mother's bias!
I dropped her in town on Friday and Saturday nights, all made up and waited around til first interval to collect her.
We all went and watched the whole performance on Sunday. I dropped her round the back, got her in the costume and then joined Michael and Caitlin. We went inside and sat down, third row back. In front of us were some ex students of Michael. The lights dimmed, the narrator told the story of the Nutcracker, the music started..... and the girl in front of us threw up! Luckily it was a water barf as it wasn't cleaned up until the first interval.
The concert went off well, Mim was perfect (of course). I didn't like the 'pirate crumping' but most of the dancing was good.
She wants to do another concert very soon.
