This was Ian's first stage show, and actually it was Seth and Grace's first major stage show (although we've certainly hit our share of amusement park shows and educational assembly type shows). Ian wasn't all that impressed once he'd ripped his paper shield to shreds, but he did like it when Pablo flew across the stage, and I was able to convince him that the egg was a ball, so that kept his attention! Over all, he didn't do too badly. I am quickly learning that Caleb loves stage shows, and I am not sure the child ever sits that still for anything else. Seth had lots of fun (although the Backyardigans are probably getting a little on the young side for him). But is was Grace who I really enjoyed watching! She was so caught up in the whole thing, and on the interactive parts, I think she really thought the characters were listening to just her and that she could help move the plot along (even from the nosebleed seats up top)! It was great.
So... yeah... It was basically a spur of the moment decision to attend this show. We had considered it early on, but when the seats dropped to half off the day before the show, we figured we might as well go and take some friends along, too! We all had a fantastic time!
And, by the way, there was no photography allowed, so I only snuck in about 50 shots... along with every other parent there... I took many of them without the flash, which resulted in a whole bunch of blur (ah... pretty colors...), but by the end I realized that there were so many flashes going off, nobody was ever going to figure out who was taking the pics, so I got a couple of good shots in:
