An email from Don

Hi everybody,

I am off for my last day of readings, have to wash up, get dressed, finish packing up my suitcase, eat breakfast and leave quite soon, to do the final three talks, zip to the airport and fly home.

So, what am I doing writing to you?

Well… When I woke up this morning THIS was in my Inbox!


“You’ll be happy to know that Will was fantastic!  He really captured the character and he’s got such amazing stage presence.  I was literally choked up with pride for him.  So proud.  I can’t believe how many lines he had to memorize!  Everybody in the audience was duly impressed.  Mr. W____ did a nice job with the staging as well. 

You can rest easy.  Your boy is quite talented and he seemed really happy with the show.  He was bouncing/walking as we left the school.

He has another matinee tomorrow and an evening performance.  He’s asked to sleep in because he doesn’t do any work on performance days so I told him okay.  I’m going to bring him in at ten.

I love you and miss you and can’t wait for you to come home.“

YAY!  Now whose dancing on air?  Me!  Of course I know Will has tremendous talent, but this was a HUGE role, an enormous undertaking, in a play that I wasn’t certain high school students would be interested in.  PHEW!  I am so happy!

Okay, I’m off.  Have a great day everybody.  xo
