Jasmine's Play

Missoula Children's Theater came to our area again this year. They didn't come last year and everyone was upset. I think the youth center got a lot of complaints because they were back this year. 

Everyone who wants to be in it from ages 6-18 show up Monday morning to try out. That takes about 90 minutes. Then the main characters actually start rehearsing about a half hour later! They rehearse every day for about four hours. The minor characters come during part of that time. The littlest kids only rehearse an hour or two, but then on Friday everyone is there from 2:00 until the performance at 6:00. So it's only a 5 day commitment.

Here are the ones she has been in. She has mostly had main roles except 2014 when there weren't many main parts. The twins have been part of the casts groups but have not always had parts. They always have groups of characters by ages.

They take a regular story but totally rewrite it. This year was Gulliver's Travels in Outer Space. There were two Gullivers, tall Gulliver and short Gulliver. Jasmine was short Gulliver. Tall Gulliver was the same (very tall!) girl who was her mermaid twin in The Little Mermaid in 2015.

Both twins tried out but neither got a part.

This year Jasmine was part of a group of gingerbread people.

This is the only year all three were in the play together.

2018 Gulliver's Travels in Space
Kayla is at camp, and Kaleb was at the Boys and Girl's Club and did not try out for behavioral reasons.

Can anyone guess what the gift is that I gave Jasmine?
