I spent all day organising theater magic! The kids did choose to do It's a Wonderful Life because they love me. So we had auditions and cast the roles, making sure everyone got one who wanted one. Some of the kids want to be backstage with me, which is good too. You don't have to be in the spotlight to create something great. We handed out scripts and did a read-through and it was fantastic.

I'm doing an overnight shift tonight. We tend to take it in turns and it's my night. I'm feeling a little on edge since getting a wee bit knifed, and some of the kids are worried about earthquakes (and some of the me is as well) but it should go okay. I'm reading the younger kids some Harry Potter tonight. They like it when I read to them because I do voices.

Oh, and Dewi, we would love to have you play piano for the show. Everyone got really excited because usually I do it and I told them my brother was a truly gifted musician. I've been ousted!

I'd better get some food in. I've got a long night ahead of me! Pray for no shaking!

	You know, I've never even seen the Harry Potter movies, let alone read the books. I think I'm among a tiny minority in that! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	You might be! I have them if you want to borrow them! They get through to a lot of the younger kids we see. They're quite amazing and empowering actually. And I don't believe it convinces any of them that they should all start doing witchcraft. It's all about love and togetherness and that even kids with a bad background can be heroes.

	Considering I'm not involved in any way, I still feel really excited about this show. I can't wait to see it! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	You need any help with anything? I'm very good at lifting things and giving piggyback rides. Small children like to use me as a jungle gym, sometimes. I could bring you some food, too! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Actually, that'd be really good. I'm sort of worried. Uhm. About me? I mean that too. It would be good. Having you there for part of it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Try not to get knifed again, that'd just be upsetting. Also, tell me you do the same annoying nasal for Rita Skeeter that I do. OOC: I've spent the last three months reading through the Harry Potter series to my little brother. I do voices. -_- (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Aww, I didn't mean to steal your spotlight! But it frees you up to be more directerly I suppose. I'm helpful! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	No, not at all! You're a much better musician than I could ever be! And I will enjoy being directorly! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, I'm glad to be there then! Sing out when you need me to come to a rehearsal. (Reply to this) (Parent)
