Watching other people's children perform on stage in an amateur production is not everyone's idea of a rollicking Saturday night out. But if you're the sentimental sort who loves musical theater and watching kids' finding themselves through song and dance, then make sure to catch Honk! at HVRHS on Saturday night, July 14, at 7 PM. (Admission is free.) In this inaugural production from the fledgling Falls Village Children's Theater Summer Camp, director Lanny Mitchell manages to take 16 children of varying abilities and brings out the best in them as individuals and as a troupe. I bet you'll be proud of these kids, kvelling as if they were your own.

HONK! HONK!! HONK!!!
I did myself a big favor last evening by slipping out of the house to see the Falls Village Children's Theater performance of "HONK!" Not only was I delightfully entertained, I also found the heart-warming theme of being "different" inspirational. So many of us can relate to the feeling of not being like everyone else, only to realize that our differences make us only that more intriguing.
Lanny Mitchell deserved the great round of applause he received, not only for his diligent work, but also for his recognition of the parents who help make these wonderful performances a reality.
Thanks for making my day!
