Jaelee has really enjoyed her acting class and being in Improv. This year she decided to try out for the fall play and she got a part as Lulu Toohey in the play The Curious Case of Groseneck, TX. It is a western comedy.

Her character is a preachers wife and a bit of a firecracker. She’s more of a preacher then her own drunk husband.

Jaelee did such a good job in her part. She put together her outfit for the character with pieces we have, some she had to buy and others were from the costume department. The hat she is wearing is from her Great Aunt Elaine. Pretty cool she got to use that. Her character is old so she had make up on to give her wrinkles and make her look old.

They didn’t want parents taking pictures during the performances so they invited them to the last dress rehearsal to take pictures and video. Greg was still hunting so I was there by myself taking a whole bunch of pictures with my phone on a monopod recording the whole thing.

After the performance they took a few group photos. Then I was able to go on stage and back stage with Jaelee. She showed me around, it was such a fun night!

The next night Greg came back into town so we could all go to the performance. It was on Halloween so there were not a lot of people in the audience. It was nice watching it again just fully in it without trying to take pictures or video.

The play was really good and Jaelee did such a good job. She had a couple of parts where the audience was laughing so loud. One I didn’t get a picture of was when she carried her husband off stage. It was pretty funny.

Really enjoy watching that girl on stage, the best part is seeing how much she loves it.
