Shrek The Musical

My youngest granddaughter performed her final high school drama performance in Shrek, The Musical, this weekend.  She will be graduated this spring and will soon be off to seek her fortune.  I hope she makes a big fortune so she can support me.

She played a witch and a mouse in the play.  As usual it was an academy award performance.  At least that’s how I graded it.  I knew she would. 

A few hours before the play my financial controller told her to “break a leg.”  In the stage play business, that means to take a bow.  I didn’t always know that and thought it sounded like a bad thing until it was explained to me.

When told it was a good thing to break a leg was a good thing.  I just started saying, “put an eye out.”  I figured if breaking a leg was good, putting out an eye would be super good.

Just so you’ll know.  She broke a leg.

I knew she would.
