Earlier this week I had the opportunity to combine several of my favorite things: spending time with friends, introducing my boys to new cultural experiences, and live musicals. I haven't taken my boys to see a live play since an ill-fated trip to see "Beauty and Beast" in 2006. However, I decided it was time to try again and we were presented with a fabulous opportunity. A good friend on mine and her five young children (four boys and one girl) were participating in a community theater production of "The Music Man." I was amazed by the quality of the production and how well my boys behaved during the performance. (I think the latter was directly proportional to the former) My boys loved watching the colorful, well-paced performance and got so excited every time they saw their friends come on stage. Here's a round of applause for community theater that truly involves the community and provides a wonderful family night out.
