The Lion King

 I have been helping my old school, The Bridge School, with it's first theater production, "The Lion King Kids".  The rehearsals sometimes were long and boring, but last night, out first performance was fun!
 Mom did the costumes and here are the lions: Scar, Simba, Mufasa and the girl in purple is Zazu, the bird.
 To the right are Pumba the warthog and Timon, the meerkat.  Elliot played Mufasa.  He's above in the yellow.
 Scar-he's the evil uncle!
 Simba, Nala, and Zazu
 The hyenas-they help Scar be super bad!

 I am/was a Rafiki, one of the story's narrators.  Andy (second from the right) had a low fever and still got on stage.  He looked really bad after the show.  But he's resting today so that he has the energy to go on tonight.  Tonight is our final performance.
 Mom got to sit up in the booth with tech expert Tatum.  She was helping Tatum with the music volume.  There was an extra seat up here, so my Dad got to sit up there and watch the show.
