Stubbington School of the Performing Arts

We’ve had an uptick in after school activity recently, with both kids going to drama classes, and Sam attending gymnastics too. Oh, and Lauren sort-of wants to do piano lessons, but she’s not organized enough to remember that. Following that theme Sam and I went to see Lauren’s school play last night (Claire had to work). Overall it was rather good, if perhaps a smidge under-rehearsed, but Lauren did a great job in her duet with Phoebe (who is about the quietest girl I know). One disturbing feature was the lipstick I thought I detected, but I’m not talking about that.

Lauren said she was nervous beforehand; I told her to remember that every single person in the audience was on her side, and nobody would mind if she went a little off course. I’m not sure this helps, but it seems like a suitably Dadish thing to say.
