american tapestry

ok, so.....i swear that i have heard this piece as directed by alice clark before.....but i sat patiently to hear it again as part of the bate arts and humanities evening.....and sat patiently through an entire act of she stoops to conquer......and through a dance sequence at which time the music stopped and the virginia reel kept going.......the show must go on......and my daughter was respendent in her colonial costume that my mother made for her out of discarded sheets.......the only student to have an outfit made just for the event....for the record, our daughter does have a future as either an actress or a forensics diva.......she was one of the few who had speaking parts who seemed to get the cadence and the words.....having sat through/absorbed years of pride and prejudice......as always, jane austen is the answer(except when it is colette...............)
