Last Saturday I took Lee on assignment with me, and that was yet another aspect of my writing career that I was very grateful to have the opportunity to enjoy. We got to see a Fairytale Theatre Children's Theatre performance at the Sierra Madre Playhouse in Sierra Madre. What an awesome time we had! I feared that it was going to be cheesy, but rather I came away feeling that I would gladly go back as a paying customer and see their performances again. They're innocent, and sweet, and refreshing.
We were greeted outside the theatre by a Fairy Godmother. Lee's eyes are closed. Photography isn't my gift, remember?
My reserved little boy, watching Merlin entertain kids from a distance before the show. He is so shy, and would have loved to have had his cousins, or friends with him. A lot of the kids came in small groups, so to him, it appeared that everyone knew each other, and I think he felt like an outsider. Bless his heart. That, and his shirt was too big.
Our friend, TFG, came inside and her dress illuminated. You can't see it here, though. But, it was cute, and I loved it. This is where the children were given their name tags, wands, golden coins, and programs.
The Sierra Madre Playhouse is proud of their plush, red velvet auditorium seats, and for good reason. They're very comfortable! Lee's holding up his wand. Yellow, of course. His favorite color since birth.
Merlin signs Lee's program, while Dee Dee Damsel looks on, approvingly.
It was a very nice morning, and both Lee and I had a great time. The theatre is only about 15-20 minutes from my house, so we will be going back for future performances. But, next time, we'll be taking young companions for Lee. Let me know if your little one is interested! On their Website, click Fairytale Theatre.
