• Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

  Last week Andrew and I were a part of the Rocky Mountain Deaf School’s performance of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.  I was involved from the very beginning, but a little over a month ago, one of our actors quit, and Andrew very graciously stepped into his roles.

  I played the Queen Mother of Snow White – the one who dies basically in child-birth, leaving Snow White’s dad to marry the Evil Queen who is obsessed with her beauty and thus starts all the problems.  I had one scene – I pricked my finger while sewing – and that was that.

  Andrew played the King, the father of the prince who eventually marries Snow White, and also the Servant of the Evil Queen.

  
  This is Andrew’s King costume, and my very pregnant Queen costume. I only had a brief scene at the very beginning, but I had to stay in that costume the entire 2 hours! Sheesh being pregnant is hard!

  
  Both of us in the green room, just before the final show. On the walls are pictures and playbills from all the acts that have performed at this venue over the years.

  All things considered, we both had a lot of fun, and got to work with some really great kids.
