Oh, how I wish you could have seen our high school production of
Anything Goes! It was polished and funny and oh-so-good!
Savannah played Hope Harcourt and Sam was Moonface Martin, public enemy #13. We had tickets for Friday night's show, but when I dropped Spencer off on Wednesday night (the church youth were seeing the show for their activity that night), I realized that's where I wanted to be. Jeff was away at meetings so I drove straight home, picked up the youngest three, and we attended opening night together. Then, of course, I figured I might as well stay to see it again after I finished selling tickets on Thursday night. Friday we all went with several friends of ours. And tonight Jeff and I had a date to see it one last time on closing night. So I saw it all four nights and it was fresh and funny every time!
Here are a few pictures that were taken earlier in the week during dress rehearsals. The set is not quite finished, but you can get a pretty good idea of the costuming. (The show takes place in 1934 aboard a cruise ship.)

Savannah and Sam are right of center. Sam is in disguise (a priest's robes) because he's a wanted man. |
|
Sam looks so different with his dark hair. He was show-stealing FUNNY!! |
|
Savannah's character was engaged to marry this English gentleman. Hope is very sweet, but torn because she is in love with Billy who stowed away on the ship to see her. |
|
Savannah's voice was perfect for her role. Her songs were beautiful! |
Bravo!

This looks so fun. I wish I could have seen it too. Savannah looks so pretty and Sam looks pretty good as a brunette. Glad you could enjoy it every night. It's hard to miss things like that even for one night.
