Her friend, my friend, graduated in '66, and my sister graduated in '68. My grandkids were in their school program yesterday, and while I was driving them home after school, my granddaughter said she'd have to be in her costume, for her part, change to sign in her chorus group, and change back, and she wouldn't have much time. I got to be in a h.s. play, and I think being behind the scenes is exciting and fun. Her description reminded me of when my sister and her friend got in work in musicals in a dinner theater in Cleveland, both after they graduated h.s. Her friend played the piano, and my sister got a chorus singing part. My sister had a day job, but really loved acting and singing. At least once, her friend picked her up from work, and she had to be ready the minute they got to the theater, so she had to change into her costume in the car, as he drove them to the theater. The two of them didn't care, but my sister said other drivers probably got an eyeful, and my mom told her not to change in the car. lol Anyway, telling my grandkids that story led to me tell the rest.
