Today I just got to see what the choreography looks like...

and what Jessica has done is hilarious. For the opening number, which came off as an absurd version of a children's "happiness" song before, it's now ten levels more absurd. We've got people waddling around and throwing giant plush ducks around and I can't really explain it without these two quotes:
  • "No, you throw the duck high, and I throw this duck low! Get it right!"
  • "You see, during this part, you're holding a duck, so you don't have to walk like one."
I love watching people attempt to figure out the logic to children's theatre...

We also did the photo shoot tonight. The pictures are hilarious. Will post as soon as Bobby's done doing his editing magic.
