We haz jazz!

Each year second grade performs a musical for the other kids in school and they have one evening performance for the parents. This year it was 'We has jazz!'

Before spring break the kids got some songs and lines which they could practice to get ready for the audition. Floortje's decided to try out for a speaking part so the lines were rehearsed many times during our road trip to Florida.

And she did it! Floortje's got the part of Betty. Not a main part but quite a few lines to learn anyway.

One of her lines (to Billie Holiday) with lots of drama: 'Oh miss Billie, I have suffered, I have suffered real bad!'

She did really well, not nervous at all, and spoke very clearly so the audience could hear. Well done Floor!

Taking pictures with my phone from quite a few rows back was not very successful.

After-show photo opportunities were much better though!
