The Merry Maids of Nottingham
Bridget just finished a long three months of play practices and, finally, play performances of Robin Hood. She was chosen to be a Merry Maid, part of Maid Marion’s entourage. All the girls were very serious about their costumes and, most importantly, their hair and make-up.
Bridget found that the sponge curlers worked the best for the curls that she wanted. She totally reminds me of my mom when it comes to hair and make-up…genetics are strong in that area! She wanted to wear curlers in her hair all day at school (other girls did). I guess it’s cool to do that these days. Can you imagine doing that when I was in school (1970’s and early 1980’s)? We would have been mocked for the rest of our lives…literally the “rest of our lives.”
The footage of the dance is not the best. I probably should have stood to the side of the gym when taking it. And I really can’t wait for the “official” DVD by Impressive Video since we just barely received our Nutcracker DVD from “December.” The play will be long forgotten by July.
