    Click the picture for an awesome slide show from the middle school drama club’s production of Seussical. In fact, I was so inspired, I wrote my own promo…

    What a fun show! I saw the production Saturday night, then posted in my Facebook profile a version of this little rhyme on Sunday hoping to help entice locals to catch the last performance:

    Fantabulous splendiforous!
    Two words I would use
    to describe the performance
    Of funtastical Seuss
    Go see it I promise
    You’ll love all the music
    the singing, the dancing
    the story, the Whosits!
    Impressive I tell you
    The kids guarantee it
    2:30 today is
    your last chance to see it.

    Lovely! Now I’m nostalgic and regretting not going. This is the first year in so long that I haven’t known at least some of the kids, though.
