Live and Learn

Here is how we are Educating ourselves by questioning, exploring, discovering, and learning everywhere except in the classroom! It's all about learning through life and respecting individuality. Please think freely and enjoy the experience with us.

We saw the musical Annie at Hammons Hall on February 17, 2008 It was a long wait at the beginning for the show to start. I loved it. There were good footsteps, good music writing, composing, and most of all the showtunes singing and dancing. -Adam
Parents' note: Thank you to Grandma and Papa D. for the Gift Certificate which allowed us to get tickets to this show!

Musical Theatre Review: Feb 3, 2008

I loved Grease. It was a good play. I loved the music. I think the composer did a good job on it. I loved the sets. It was well painted and detailed. I loved it very much. I loved the dances. The director did a good job and the choreographer did a good job step by step.

blogger's note: Grease will be performed through February at Springfield Little Theater at the Landers: http://www.springfieldlittletheatre.org/

The 10 Tenors were great. I loved it. The songs were great, especially Waltzing Matilda, Figaro, and others. The guys are good singers. I loved each one of them and the singing.
