Tracy and I at her house, before heading out for our Grease sing a long at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle. We took the light rail from Tukwila again. Seriously, this is so easy and quick (35 minutes this time) and only $5.50 and we left at like 11:30 and didn't get back until like 11. Pretty good deal. We didn't know what to expect, and it was a fun time. I am appalled at some of the words, in particular, to the song Grease Lightening! Holy cow! Good thing I have been singing them wrong all these years, ha!
Tracy and I before meeting everyone!
Bree and Iris (an exchange student from Belgium that Bree is friends with)
Everyone in the 5th
They had bags with props in them and the words came on the screen for us to sing. Each main character had something that we did when we saw them, like cheer, or hiss, etc...they really tried to make it interactive and fun. Inside our bag was a tissue that we "cried" into during songs like Hopelessly Devoted to You, and raised into the air on sappy scenes. There was a blue balloon that we blew up and held into the air during the song Blue Moon and then let the air out of and into the air at a certain point, we had a checker flag that we used during the car race and a confetti popper at the end.
I had a good time and the tickets were reasonably priced, they had a costume contest and there were some great entries there too. Aimee and Bree did the contest but didn't end up finalists (although they are winners in our book) Aimee dug her costume and saddle shoes out of their dress up box, and it did kinda look like she just climbed out of the back of the back of a 57 Chevy with Kenickie! Ha! Breeanna had on tight leather leggings and high heeled shoes and hair all curled like the Sandy from the end of the movie (bad Sandy they called her) But they had some awesome costumes. I tried to get pictures but I couldn't from inside....there were some beauty school drop outs that were great and a few Sandy's that were perfect!!!! Breeanna wold have been a contender I think, but she got stage fright and lost some of her sass! But we love her anyway!
