With the show scheduled for Friday and since I am helping out with the slides and stuff there was no way I could get out of this one.
Of course the elves (ranging from 7 - 10 years) looked absolutely adorable. But the scene stealer in the whole play had to be the evil Step-mother Queen.
All of eleven or twelve she carried herself with an attitude that came on stage a couple of minutes before she did and lingered on well after she had left the scene.
Couldn't help thinking "Badi hoke Bitch Banegee"
Also made me wonder why in most fiction the Role of the Bad guy is always far better moulded and certainly a lot more powerful than that of the nice guy.
Joan Collins in Dynasty, Gabbar Singh in Sholay, A in Dhoom 2, Shylock in the Merchant of Venice.
Makes you wonder - Are all successful script writers members of the Original "D" Gang out to promote the whole concept of "Bad is Coool"
Also made me realise why all my attempts to write fiction never quite worked out. The purity of my soul and my good nature made me unfit for the role of a writer of Good drama.
Sometimes I think I am too good for my own good.

O Gawwwdd... woman...
This is wrong! This is ABSOLUTELY WRONG!!!!
Just because I went to a nice Missionary School and Wren & Martin was required reading (which accounts for my decent grammar) is no reason for you guys to wantonly besmirch my virgin pure soul.
And CT Darling it is not the dimension of my nose that is the stuff of legends.
If we have to make comparisons lets talk Jeff Stryker

bloghopped my way over and ended up most amused :0) you're right about the baddie thing...even women seem to make a beeline for the bad guys. I think we're all bored to death and something out of the "ordinary" provides some stimulation...that's all there is to it!
Orangejammies (and Izzy too) With thanks from the bottom of my heart I have to say this
"I have always depended on the kindness of strangers..."
More the case since those that seem to know me better choose to mock me
