YESTERDAY WE TOOK OUR FINAL TRIP TO WONDERLAND WITH ACADEMY PLAYERS OF RHODE ISLAND! THEATRE IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN A PART OF MY LIFE ON AND OFF FROM MY EARLY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL YEARS, AND I'M DELIGHTED THAT IT'S FOUND ME AGAIN EVEN AFTER COLLEGE AND DURING THE FRENZY OF LAW SCHOOL, LIKELY WHEN I NEEDED IT MOST. THIS TIME WAS DIFFERENT THOUGH, BECAUSE I SHARED MY FAVORITE HOBBY WITH MY BEST FRIEND WHO GOT TO GRACE THE STAGE RIGHT ALONG WITH ME! ASHER'S SUCH A HIT WITH EVERYONE HE MEETS AND I'VE BEEN SO HAPPY TO SHARE HIM AND HIS MANY TALENTS (I GUESS WE CAN ADD ACTOR TO THE LIST NOW!) WITH OUR FRIENDS AT ACADEMY OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS, BUT WE'RE ALSO SO THANKFUL TO HAVE BEEN SO WELL RECEIVED AND ACCOMMODATED BY THE WHOLE CAST. ASHER DESERVES LOTS OF CREDIT TOO FOR NOT ONLY ALWAYS BEING ON HIS BEST BEHAVIOR, BUT DOING THAT WHILE PUTTING UP WITH LOUD TAP DANCERS AND MUSIC, BRIGHT LIGHTS, DIFFERENT AUDIENCE MEMBERS EACH NIGHT, AND PLANNED CHAOS ON STAGE IN ACT TWO WHEN EVERYONE SCATTERS TO AN EXIT. ASHER'S ALWAYS BEEN SO STEADY FOR ME, BUT HAS PROVEN WITH OUR LATEST ENDEAVOR THAT HE'LL TAKE VIRTUALLY ANYTHING IN STRIDE!
SO WITH THAT, WE TAKE A FINAL BOW ON OUR SPRING SEASON AND MAKE OUR MOVE TO THE BIG CITY TODAY FOR OUR FIRST DAY OF WORK TOMORROW! STAY TUNED!
THIS (2ND PIC) IS MY FAVORITE PHOTO OF THE WHOLE SHOW - ASHER TAKES A BOW AT CURTAIN CALL! BUT TAKE A LOOK AT THE EXPRESSIONS OF THE CAST IN THE BACKGROUND, THAT'S MY FAVORITE PART!
