After the Bows

Each cast is special and each performance seems to get the title "Best Cast Ever", but Delia had the MOST fun with this group!  Her new favorite drama memory occurred in the space between Saturday's two shows when all her guy buddies on the cast entertained by singing and dancing ridiculously as their newly-formed boy band "Dos Direcciones".   

This year's cast photo has them all posing in character!  I spy the lime squeezer and the blunt object and the pink cards and the tossed bouquet and the cordless phone! 

Dressing room selfies.


The besties.  Natalie above, Tessa below.


The pose. ;)

Dearest friend Kate.

Little fans from church who never miss a performance!

Long time mentor and former middle school teacher Karissa.

Two of Delia's good buddies played her brothers.  Love the Brother Bodyguard pose! 

The juniors on cast.

Annnnnd...our VIP audience members!  What a wonderful weekend we had, not only attending these great shows, but also hosting Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Kyle, and Ella!!

Ella and Uncle Kyle pulled up to the auditorium about 15 minutes before the curtain on Opening Night!  So special to have everyone here to cheer for Delia and all her hard work on this one!   

First post-show family picture with Ella NOT in costume!  Ella took a role she's never had before for this one-- audience member!  She said she was much more nervous watching than she ever was performing.   


When Delia was working to conquer those Opening Night Jitters, I told her to just imagine the great relief and pride she'd feel taking that final bow on Closing Night.  It was an amazing, exhausting weekend that we were so thankful to share with a house full of loved ones!
