The Musical


      Kaitlyn surprised us when she said she was trying out for the high school musical this year. The musical had a tap number she wanted to be in.  Originally, the directors put her in the dance number and some group songs.  Just a few rehearsals in, they gave her a speaking line. She found this out when they started hollering for her to get on stage for her part!  Then, a week before the musical performance, the directors gave her another part -- a two-person scene at the beginning of the show because one of the girls had missed rehearsals.  Kaitlyn had one week to learn four pages of lines and.... she nailed it!  We knew she could sing, everyone knows she can dance, but she can also act, folks.  A jack of all trades, that girl.
