Mexican Music and Dance: Winter Show


Today was Eliza's big show with Miss Arwen (aka Auntie Arwen).  It was the culmination of their semester in Miss Arwen's Mexican Music and Dance class at the East Bay Center for Performing Arts.  The Center is a wonderful place and it was great to see all of the other cool classes, talented kids and friendly people which populate the place.  

Eliza and all of the other girls and boys were great.  Their songs, games and dances were beautiful as well as cute as all get out. While she loves being the center of attention most of the time, she tends to clam up and get serious stage fright when actually called on to be the center of attention.  But, she worked through it and made us all very proud.  Our camera is on the fritz and we used a dodgy back-up, so we didn't capture it as well as we would have liked, but here it is.




Eliza getting prepared.
Nutty was called on to sing "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" before the show started because the first act was running behind.  She was persuaded by the promise of a candy cane, but mostly clammed up once she got to the front of the stage.
