Annie at Zilker! (Well, rehearsal anyway)

DA got to perform in Annie (well, a rehearsal at least) on the Zilker Hilside Theatre for the first time this week. She's been waiting for this opportunity for about, oh, umm, THIRTEEN YEARS! The hillside looks beautiful. They've made improvements to the paths in front of the stage and added a porch to the tech booth at the top of the hill. Evidently some changes have been made backstage as well, but I didn't get to see those. Even though the girls seemed a bit overwhelmed by the size of the stage and the incredible set the first rehearsal at the park went great. And most importantly, DA WAS ON THE ZILKER STAGE FOR A REAL PURPOSE - not just playing around like she did when she was younger. She's well on her way to a dream come true.
