Brigid: Theater Crew Member Extraordinaire

Our daughter, Brigid, became involved in her high school's theater group this year. She worked crew for the two main plays this year, George Orwell's 1984 and Seussical the Musical. She learned how to use all sorts of tools while building sets, and even though she said it was a lot of work, she had a lot of fun, too.

Tonight was her school's theater awards. The kids get all dressed up in formal attire, just like the Academy and Tony awards. Brigid won the award for Best Technical Newcomer for the overall year, plus a group award for Best Technical Ensemble for one of the plays. Obviously we are really proud of her, and she is getting to experience the particular joy of having her hard work truly appreciated.

She said I could post these photos here. Click on the photos for a larger view.

Isn't she just beautiful?
