Well, the HB gutted it out (pun intended as you'll see soon) through his first non-school theater experience. The NZS joined us for today's 2nd performance (4th overall) and was a good sport about it. Unfortunately, the HB developed a bit of a stomach ache today which eventually caught up with him. However, he did make it through the second performance, but wasn't feeling well enough to even go out to a restaurant of his choosing afterwards. I'm not doubting that he had a belly ache of some sort, but with him it's always something that ruins (his words) his big days. A troubling trend.
Once he starts feeling better we'll see if he wants to do another show with them. I'm ambivalent. On one hand it was great for him in that he worked with other kids and saw through something from chaos to a real production. He was interested enough to not complain about going to rehearsals, but you could tell when he was on stage it wasn't his thing. I think he'll do great in theater, but probably behind the scenes. The woman who made the thing go thanked the set and lighting designers. That's where I think the HB would really shine. I just gotta find a way to get him involved with that stuff.
