Ballet in the Park

Ballet Wichita came to Newton tonight as part of their Ballet in the Park series. They performed The Wizard of Oz, and Natalie and Max were in heaven. We have a slight Wizard of Oz obsession in our house right now. Songs, drawings, Halloween costumes, requested birthday party themes, our current bedtime chapter book - they're all Wizard of Oz, so this was perfect. They have been talking about going to the show all week. The dancers were all standing up by the stage when we got there, and Max asked a million questions about all of the characters and their costumes and where so-and-so was. Once the show started, they danced in their seats and hummed along with the songs. We even got to meet the characters after the show!
