In continuance and conclusion (for today) of this series of blogs…

Saturday night we dropped Chico off at Danny and Patty Morris’ casa (Danny and Patty have unofficially become Ryland’s surrogate grandparents on the Eastern Shore… but we’ll save that story for another blog) and ventured to the Land of Oz (not the prison) in the Mardela High School Cafetorium. We were accompanied in our journey through the Land of Oz by Angie and Bob (Caleb’s proud parents) and Mitch (who is one of my seniors that I’ve bragged on before).
 

Caleb Drehmer was the cowardly lion… and he was outstanding. He stinkin’ stole the show with his comedic timing and line delivery… and he was impressive when he sang his solos while matching his character speaking voice and character singing voice. It was greatness! Overall the musical was solid, with good vocal performances and good acting. The high school band played and did a good job as well. Another of my students, Megan, played alto-sax and did a great job (she is featured below in the photo alongside her sister Cozy).

All I’ve got to say now is… OH BETSY!!!
