Sheridan's 6th grade class performed an abbreviated version of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" in March. They double-cast the play, so in one cast Sheridan played Oberon, the fairy king (pictured with the other fairies above), and in the other, he played Bottom the Weaver (seen with "The Wall" during the play within a play in the bottom picture). He had so much fun (and was really very funny) as Bottom, especially in his "death" scene. He was really very sad when the play ended. I asked Sheridan if he wanted to do more plays, but he thinks he should only be a Shakespearean actor. :-)
Mitchell attended the play with me 3 times. The first time, we were in a back row where he couldn't see and he just played on Guy's iPhone. But the other two times, he loved watching it, and thought it was terribly funny. What I found funniest was overhearing him recite some of the lines from the play--especially the ones from when Bottom was a donkey.

Good job, Sheridan!
Ike's 6th grade put on a musical and he couldn't stay far enough away from it. He's a pretty decent performer when he wants to be, but he doesn't usually want to be, especially if the production involves song and dance.
