Heart at Home

Our children love the bright lights of the stage. They sit on the edges of their seats and get really involved in the performances, clapping their hands raw during the encores. Last year we went to the theatre a couple of times, taking them to see The Phantom of the Opera and The Mikado. Both performances were well received. We purchased dvds of the stories and they've been watched thousands of times. Mine is probably the only four year old who went to kindy singing "I'm the Lord High Executioner" and made paper 'chippy choppers'. Blood thirsty little tyke!

Today we went back to see Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. It was great. The kids loved to see Pharoah as an aging Elvis. They have been learning about Joseph in their school Religious Education classes, so they were able to follow the story easily, though Joshua shed a tear when Joseph was sold into slavery. So now I need to find a dvd of Joseph, to give him a new set of songs to memorise. I am really looking forward to going back to see another great performance. I wonder what we will see next ...
