Troop # 84: Charlotte's Web at the Michigan Theatre (02.04.2007)

Yesterday, the family went to the Michigan Theatre and saw a play adaptation of "Charlotte's Web" with Yummers' Brownie Troop. I haven't been to the Michigan Theatre in years, but it still was a splendid sight to behold. The plaster medallions and details were as colourful as they were years ago. Prior to the play starting, there was an organist playing children's tunes by the stage. There were a few sound issues, but overall, it was very charming. The actress who played Charlotte captured her voice perfectly in my opinion. As an FYI, the performance troop were from NYC.

Off-topic a bit ... Michael took a picture of our external thermometer. It was ZERO degrees and 62 degrees in our house. It was bloody cold outside!

We had a snack and beverage at Border's across the street after the show. Then, we headed home in a mild winter storm where Yum and I dropped Dad and Minnie off. The girls headed to the store, and the boys started insulating the parlour walls.
