In other words, The Enchanted Child. The girls had their ballet recital today. It was incredible! This ballet was adapted from an opera. It is the story of a boy who refuses to listen to his mother's request to do his homework. The mother then refuses to give him his snack. At this, the boy then has a temper tantrum and starts to destroy the things around him. He pulls petals off of flowers. He throws down his book and teacup and torments his cats, just to name a few. All of the "things" that he mistreats come to life and show him how they feel about being mistreated. In the end the little boy realizes the error of his ways and lovingly reunites with his mother.
Not your typical ballet, but loads of fun. Julia was a fish and Mary Jane was the equal sign from his math book. This was there first ever recital. They were a bit nervous but did well. I am so proud of them I could burst. Oh, and of course I cried at the end.
(I covered part of the program. It had to much info :0))
The girls and their teacher Ms. K
