The theme of the show was "All We Need is Love", set in the 60's. Most of the drama was centered around a young man being drafted to the war. If you see an older couple in any pictures, they are the young couple today. It continually flashed back and forth between 60's and present day. Most of the dances except the ballet were done to 60's music.

It was a great show. It was very refreshing. As you all know, this is the first year Briana has been in this theater and in their dance program. Did you notice the jazz costumes? Their bodies are fully covered. This is the first time Bri has been able to dance jazz since she was about 7 because the studio here had very skimpy (as in bikini outfits...literally) costumes, and did very provocative dances. We had none of that in this studio, so she was able to participate. It was so nice to sit through a recital and not have to sit through, or get up and walk out of dances. They did 4 performances in 3 days. I only got to go to one of them, because we had to get back home for a fund raising dinner with Ashley.
The recital was on the same stage as all of the professional musicals, so Shenandoah was off for a week for the recital tech and dress rehearsals. It was back up and going yesterday, though. She is just over half way through with Shenandoah performances. Nineteen down, seventeen to go! We'll be going to see it again (for the 3rd time) in 10 days. Go, go, go is the theme for us this spring! : )
