Hoboken Children's Theater. Stalls ($5).
Maisie had a role in this production, so Anne and I attended the second of the two performances. They had 8 practice sessions.
HCT is putting out multiple version of the show: a one-hour long program for 5th/6th graders, 35 minutes for grades 3 and 4, and shorter versions for younger children. A lot of work for the teachers.
The theater is small, the music was taped, and there was no sound system, so the dialog was sometimes difficult to get.
And there were quite a few costume changes, which the production team managed brilliantly.
As grandparents we were happy to go along for the ride.
I dropped Anne off at the Theater, parked at Ellie's, and then walked to the Theater. They started when I got to my seat, 2 minutes late. (Quite possible they waited for the straggler.)
We walked back afterwards, late fall was in the air.
