On Thursday the 27th of August, Josiah took part in his school's bi-annual revue. The play told the story of how the king of the land of Fairy Tales was planning to cancel all fairy tales as the fairy tale characters were not doing their work. All the fairy tale characters had the chance to go and plead their case before the king or they will be forced to go and live in the real world. Considering the fact that it was Pre-school to Gr 3 children (between the ages of 3 and 9) taking part, it was extremely well done. I got really camera happy and snapped lots and lots of pictures. Jos had the role of the Wolf from Little Red Riding Hood. He had everyone in stitches. To my surprise he calmly waited for the audience to compose themselves and then carried on without missing a beat. When I commented on this he smugly replied that the expensive drama lessons I complain about, are clearly paying off. No arguing that point!
Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf about to state their case.
The Wolf explainig to the King that people in real life are scared of him and will surely kill him.
If they find out he is a talking Wolf before they kill him, he will definitely end up in the circus...
Peaceful protests ...
I love the fact that Jos's school insists on mass participation. Each child had a chance to partcipate in the group singing and dancing.
Introducing the choir. 
Tired and relieved fairy tale stars - the King withdrew his decision in the end!
Last chance to sit on the King's throne.
