School Play: "Compose Yourself"

Cassie got to be Mozart in a play this last week. She did great, as usual!

The basic story line is that a group of composers, in the form of statues, come to life.

Cassie's the one with the silver hair, the second from the left, in this first clip:



Here, the just-woken-composers are complaining about how stiff they feel. The third kid up to the mike says, "I've got a Mozart Effect right here in my neck!" The next one up says, "A Mozart Effect--bah humbug! Why not a Bach Effect?!" And so on... Cassie's little bit in this comes up at about 25 seconds.



Here's Cassie's solo--it's kind of challenging to sing!



Cassie's bit in this comes up at around 45 seconds, and then at 1:53.



Cassie's friends are the bride and groom:



I missed the lead in to this, but another boy comes up to the mike and says something like, "I know who Mozart is, my mom listens to it every morning while she has her morning coffee." And then our little Mozart comes up (this is where the clip starts) and says, "Oh great, now I'm just background music!" The rest of the clip, there are people on stage (you can't see them behind the other kids) pretending to have breakfast.



And in this last one, she says, "Studies show I can have quite a profound effect on you!"



And here are a couple of photos. I wish I could have gotten a better one with her in the fun wig and the Mozart sash.
