Jack did his first school musical this spring! He was on the “build crew” run by his beloved shop teacher, Ms. Nelson. He built several pieces for the set of Mary Poppins. Then he was picked from the whole pool of stage crew to be on the “running crew” where they do the set changes during the show. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a stressful 3 weeks going up to the show. The directors were not very good at communicating, and they brought in the running crew during the most stressful time of a show’s rehearsals. Jack put in many long hours after school to fulfill his commitment. After all that hard work he was planning to retire from the stage, and only do build crew again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But lo, the magic of theater enchanted him. Once they had an audience and rehearsals were done, he had a great time doing the show. He also made some good friends that he’s sad will be moving on to other schools next year. I’m glad that he had a good experience in the end, with fond feelings for the experience. We’ll see whether he wants to do the running crew again next year. They are changing school hours from 7:20-2:20 to 9:00-4:00. So the club schedules are a mystery for now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
