A Whole New World

 Our granddaughter Dara was in the play "Alladin Jr." this week. She played the head of the guards. So come along with me for a visit to the Ottoman empire! 



The outfits of the princess & her ladies were really pretty and bejeweled.



Here is Dara "arresting" them.



She was trying to be serious and not laugh.


Success!


Alladin & the princess singing "A Whole New World". They had beautiful voices.


Time for their final bows. They were all given a standing ovation. So much talent for middle-schoolers!

They have a lot more talent than I did when I was in middle school. Good for them!

I am so glad you get to go see them in all the wonderful things they do and participate in. the costumes are beautiful and I bet this was fun. we did not do things like this in my school, way back in the 50's, school is so different now. .

How delightful that must have been. Dara looks wonderful in her costume. All the costumes look like they had a lot of work put into them. Hurray to those who put them together and congrats to Dara for a wonderful performance!

How fun for Dara to be in the school play. And Alladin is an awesome one. Jasmine's outfit is dazzling. What a fun production for all the kids.
