Jeff had and Elder's Quorum assignment to usher or clean up after a Pirates of Penzance multi-stake cultural arts performance. This was the perfect chance to take the family to do something a little different than the norm for us. MarGene had a friend in the musical and wanted to come along. We were happy to have her join us.
I'm not sure any of us knew what to expect but were pleasantly surprised at how well it was all put together. We had a great time and both my kids LOVED it. They enjoyed it so much they asked to go back and see it again. The idea was that Papa didn't come as he was just coming home from being out of town. So what a perfect reason to go the next day so we could bring Papa with us. It was nice to see some of the main parts played by different actors. On different days different people play the lead roles. So that made it fresh. The kids still loved it the second time through. The seats were a bit hard on the rear after sitting but other than that it was great. I even heard someone behind us say that this production was better than the 5th street production in Seattle. Wow was a great compliment to how well they did. We had a great time as a family and are even thinking about their next event of "A Christmas Carol" in November. I love things like this to expose my kids to. It gives them a nice background of different stuff.
