Bright Futures on Broadway

[jessica]

Every year, our former daycare, Bright Futures, holds a show and it gets bigger and better with every passing year. This year I am helping with some of the costumes. The kids have been practicing since December 2010 for this one-hour event; they put so much heart and sweat equity into their show. If you are in the El Cerrito area on July 16, 2011, please come and help support this wonderful thing.

I'm really sad I have to miss the show this year. I've seen the last 2, folks, and they were great. Jessica's brood are really talented.

This is one practice session, getting ready for the big performance, so that's why the lighting is not perfect, and the kids are not in costume, and also there was a crew member missing. The whole show was spectacular. Everyone's still excited about it. It's great to have been a part of the show.

Even the Mayor of Richmond came to hand out the children their awards.

Good luck to your kiddos! Hope they have a ball!

Here's part of the dance the kids worked on, which was a surprise for Ivy, the owner of the daycare. Dancers starting from left: Maliq, Daniel, Dylan, Ethan, and Ashton does the solo. I will try to post another dance number. Very impressed with the way everyone performed.

One last upload. We are waiting for the official video to be released by the videographer, but he said that it would take about a month before we see anything. So until then, I guess this video post will do to remind us of how glorious one event could be.
