My little Red Robin (Family stuff)

Hey Bro, thought you might like to see your beautiful niece - all dressed up and ready for her first ever pantomime! Here we are backstage - with me in the morning for a full technical rehearsal and by herself (with more make-up) for the real performance.





















The programme read:

One Magic Night
In the still of the night, when all the forest is quiet, the magic begins to unfurl. Jewelled Sylphs, who have not been seen for many years, appear with the Night Spirits. The presence of the Jewelled Sylphs begins to brighten the forest and with the help of the Jewelled Fairies and Fireflies, all creature now start to awaken.
We see Ladybirds & Grasshoppers, Fairy Sprites & Pixies. Of course, a forest is not complete without the Owls, Dragonflies & Spiders - such characters they are! Forest children come to see this magical event and delight in the antics of the Mice, Birds, Butterflies, Bunnies & Bluebells. They all dance for joy, wishing this magic time would never end, but the Jewelled Sylphs must return to their secret location, only known by the night spirits. The Mice and bunnies try to follow but become too weary to continue their journey into the darkness - once again silence and darkness fall upon the forest.

Dad, Mary and Julie came with Gavin, Daniel and I - it was so gorgeous! The mice and bunnies were the smallest girls (some only 4 years old), and wandered around the stage forgetting everything - was so cute. Jennifer's class - the red robins, did a great job with their part. I will send you the dvd when I get a copy. Here are the offical portraits -
