I can't see him!As I am sure all of you remember, Sultry Husband is in the play "Fiddler on the roof". It opened last night. It is actually fantastic, especially for a small community production. The dancing is far from flawless, but the acting is stellar and the vocal talents in this small area are actually pretty impressive.
I took the girls to see "daddies play" on Wednesday night. It was the dress rehearsal, but they invited family members to come and see the play for free that night. We have family coming in town to see it on Saturday, so I thought it best to take the girls on the free night.
The make-up ladies put stage make-up on all the men. It is helpful from the far distances of the auditorium, but the most amusing is that they glued a goatee on SH's face. To make him look more like a sinister Russian constable. My girls were not prepared for this. As he strutted on stage for the first time and I pointed him out to the girls M shouted out "Where is he?! I can't see him!" at which point the other audience members chuckled.
Later in the show, when his big scene was upon us, (he sings a great vocal solo), he stood in the middle of the stage doing the song and dance that he had been practicing over and over. They recognized the song, they recognized the moves he was making, but at that point L said "it sounds like my Daddy, but I don't see him!" As I explained make-up to my three year old, she seemed to understand a bit better...
They managed to make it a little over halfway through the play before they both fell fast asleep. They didn't even budge as the audience started clapping for the curtain call. It was at this point that I realized that I was in trouble. I was planning to meet SH in the foyer after the show, but just how was I supposed to carry all of our stuff, and two sleeping kids?! I found myself sitting right where I was until he came in the auditorium to find us. It was a fun night, and our girls now understand that Daddy can play a bad guy really well!
